I found a Mechanic just like the one you talked about. He owns a small shop out in Ditmer Missouri. He fixed my Subaru Legacy for only $300 when Import shops wanted to charge me over $1200 for a camshaft seal. he had no prior experience working on Subarus. I always have respected that man. He was an old dog who liked learning new tricks. He was honest. He also replaced my crankshaft seal. As an A&P and Machinist, he gave me a lot of inspiration. I always want to learn and be passionate about my work. Never be afraid to try new things.

“I was young once but I didn’t know a 10th of what I know now”. Idk why but that statement makes me feel good about being young and kinda dumb as I am now and look forward to getting older and learning more about how the world works

Good starting point Scotty.
By stating not to rely on the internet when trying to find a good mechanic; Are you trying to say that you can't believe things on the internet?
As far as certificates go, some people are book smart, and can only take tests well, while others can only turn a wrench well. Stay away from both.
You have others that can take tests because they learned what was in a book [Service/Shop Manuals] and turn a wrench.
Stay away from those who can't learn, and only fix by luck.

I follow the Zuckerberg method. It consists of following a potential mechanic home after they leave work and then keeping tabs on them for a while before I make any decisions about them. This includes checking their mail, their trash, the people they associate with, where they go, their credit worthiness, and things like that to get a better idea of who they really are.

[scottykilmer]

I don't make housecalls. I spend far too much time fixing em here in downtown houston and answering people's questions on the net

[Remnant]

The best videos on auto mechanics. He keeps them simple, short, and direct.

[amorey]

Word of mouth, absolutely spot on. I know a good mechanic from my hometown and he has tons of work. Knowledge and integrity count for a lot.
