Actually, it did not start fight, I remember the look on her face as XW just paused as she didn't see that coming. Guess she expected me to save the day for brownie points with her or something.
Part that cracks me up most, in my sitch, it was replace a fuel pump she ruined by never having enough gas in the tank despite my constant reminder it's not a fun job on the particular 'victim' car. So, according to her, she had it done and some other work to the tune of "$1,500" versus $250 max for me to do it, but yet, she drove the dang thing home with.......
No gas in the tank and blew the pump again. And now the car, our formerly much anticipated toy for the both of us, sits directly infront of her house, filthy and as of this morning with a windshield full of parking tickets to remind her of how things USED to get done at her beckon call.
EDIT-And much the same I was ASE certified tech. So another point of advice - gather up all you tools and put them in storage need be! I "lost" everyone of mine to the D and lost the ability to do side jobs for extra income.
