| Here's my philosophy on this subject:
Whenever I did ride-alongs to help diagnose some strange problem, I asked for symptoms only from the tech. It's too easy to to get steered off in the wrong direction by following someone else's faulty line of reasoning.
The times I got stumped were usually when I listened to the whole long story, and ended up in the same blind alley as the tech did.
I say, use your own brain. Make your own diagnosis. =^..^= |
