My recent issue with my van while travelling got me to thinking about working on your car yourself, or having someone do it.

With the van, it was a pretty easy decision, as it wasn't an easy fix in a parking lot. But for something you can do at home, should you do it yourself?

I prefer to fix things myself, and if it is for a car that isn't the only vehicle, so you don't have to get it fixed to go to work the next day, it can be fun.

And with classic cars, you need to be able to find a mechanic to work on it that knows something about carburetors, and since the last carbureted car was built in 1990 (kind of scary to think that was 25 years ago) and most vehicles had switched to fuel injection before that, there are many mechanics out there that have never dealt with a carburetor on a car.

Just somethings to think about.
