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.
