Project 7.3

[Bduck]

Hey Curt, doing those projects helps saves some money that can be put fwd. into other projects. Sometimes I don't mind doing them but physically it can take its toll nowadays depending what's involve. My wife bought into the home repair insurance about 3yrs ago only to get stung by them. I won't buy auto repair insurance for reasons like the home repair. I also find several times I need to buy an auto part there is 2-3 options offered to extend a warranty mostly when a purchase is online. When there is a local purchase options can be either for a part remanufactured that has a 1yr warranty or pay extra for a new part with a lifetime. I've done the lifetime from NAPA for an alternator which I have used 4 times over the years. Another time was before Checker Auto were still around, I replaced a starter with a 1yr warranty on my old Bronco. Headed to Calif a couple months later and made a stop for gas in Winnemucca, Nv. The vehicle would not start, starter went Kaputs, so I was lucky there was a Checker Auto locally. They had a lifetime on a starter on their shelf, since the starter on my vehicle was still in warranty it was used towards new starter. Those folks at Checker brought me the new starter after making the purchase over the phone with credit card. I always carried tools and was able to replace the starter.
