Tests save money where practical. Shot gunning has always been questionable except for some intermittent problems perhaps.

Most working mechanics over time develop a sense of intuiton that cannot be ignored . Plus a ton of hands on experience. Those are specific important reasons guys like myself cannot run at their speed.

As a hobby working on my own cars is both relaxing and enjoyable. I amaze myself at what we can pull off when we get time to do it. The members on this site actually teach me many approaches to problems I may or may not experience or think of. Knowledge is cumlative and sometimes transferable between different fields as well.

Yeah nothing beats tons of actual experience. We're all here to learn. That's what makes this post so interesting.
