Yes, having the proper tools that are configured as you like them is critical, too many modern 'mechanics' these days are just parts changers with little concept of how things work or the bigger picture .

I was in a huge junkyar yesterday, they used to always have multiple W123 & W126's. nary a one yesterday but, they did have a table covered with old tools from the junkers, some were good quality, I found an American made Milton brand tire gauge that works, sweet .
