I agree. What the heck is it with this place- everyone chiming in to try to one-up someone by trying to sound smart and "technical"?

Happens a lot in this forum. I once had a dork in the vintage section get mad at me for suggesting to chain a coil to avoid it from flying out during rear suspension disassembly. Ya, know, so the operator doesn't get killed by a flying spring?

His excuse? - That I've never worked on a Wxxx EDIT: it was a W111

PS - armchair wrenches: You have NO RIGHT to comment if you've never been dirty working on a car. Yes, regurgitation of popular internet mythology only read and not experienced should not be allowed. Grammar Nazis fall into this same category.
