Reminded me of when I was a teen and started working for a local filling station. Within a few months the mechanic had taken me under his wing and I learned all those short cut "fixits" and more from him. IIRC, taking the four pronged plugs off the ballast resistor (electronic ignition) and just moving them to the lower two terminals got more cars back to the shop than anything else. Good reminder. I need to resupply my tool box!
