Embarrassing moments in car ownership

I had to go to a website to figure out how to get 3 of
the spark plugs out of my wife's Toyota Sienna's 6
cylinder engine.  And I incorrectly called Peter C. to
complain that he only sent 3 plug wires (that's all
there are).  Newfangled crap.  'course it has well
over 100K miles, but still.

When working on a real car, on a bad day it takes me
45 minutes by myself to remove a Bugeye engine from
the time I decide to do it (I cheat and use an
electric winch hung from the garage rafters). Sheesh!
