Mr Vines, in tuning up my car, to make it as reliable as possible, I just did what you suggested.When I returned to pick up the car, the mechanic said, "you know those new parts aren't near as good as the original ones I took out."
Duh! why did you ask me to replace them then? Sure enough, the new capacitor went out after only 75 miles. I just barely made it back from a country drive to my house. Luckily I got another mechanic to come look at it at the house and he fixed it with a part that says made in USA. My shop is 35 miles away which would have required a $165.00 towing fee. Maybe I should leave well enough alone if the car is running ok.
