sometimes it is absolutely necessary to back off and rest and think a little.

i once was able to put in a clutch spring on a pressure plate that my favorite machinist had been struggling with for an hour when i happened by. he was tired and i was fresh. he is a much much much more experienced and better mechanic than i will ever be but i was not tired.

live and learn.

good luck next time.
