If this were a facebook post I would:    LIKE.  Excellent book.  I cant wait till Tom put one together on LSD; as his knowledge is vast as well.

I think you would be correct.

Not at all.  Just email me with the codes from your new PC.  The USB version requires the same keys.

Thank for the link and your kinds words. I think it was you that asked me to put up my website link in another thread and I was hesitant to do that as I truly didn't join to market my ebook.

As for the Danner book I just got access to the online copy. The only ones to get a paper copy are the people enrolled in the automotive school he teaches at. The book is great as it focuses on repairing general problems. I noticed he uses many tools ie scanner and not just the pico scope. I was hoping there was more info on scope use in his training but he is very focused on fixing the problem with the most efficient tool and not just the scope. I love my new pico scope and wish it was the only tool I ever had to use. I often try to make things more complicated by pulling out the scope when I could just use the scanner. After all work is supposed to be fun (right).

Without watching it (I will again to be sure) the reason I ruled out a vacuum leak on one cylinder is this would cause a lean misfire and very high HC readings out of the tailpipe. So with our HC reading being normal (low), I ruled it out completely.
Oh and no worries about questioning anything I am doing or showing. I need this kind of feedback. I am certainly not perfect and make a ton of mistakes.

Sounds good bro. You need to do that. Heck I need to do that too. I have four of them (3 boys and 1 girl) and they need daddy not staring at the computer all night.

Paul I understand completely your reservations in that matter.  I also, had reservations and in fact did consult with Tom prior to any action. I really could tell, even from your demeanor in your videos that you would have those reservations, so in the spirit of doing what I could for new users I dood the deed.

For me no single work explains everything in a manner that will be completely understood by every reader or in Tom's case viewer, you or others may say or print something in a way that turns the light on. This site is another source of the same spirit, Mick, Rod, or Brandon may explain something that Preston reiterates in a way that at least one member gets a clearer picture, and visa-versa.

I keep the Nerd Series on my desk at my left hand, and view something every week after we close the shop. It'll be the same with your work, I am in fact a slow learner and truly do appreciate everything you have done, and seem to be prepared to do here.  My most sincere Thanks To You and All the AutoNerdz Family, I just hope someday I'll be a competent enough Technician to actually render assistance.

You're right RtOne; and knowing Tom he probably works all 55 hours of those days.  We all appreciate him and his team.  I look forward to meeting him in person one day.

Lost motion is a PITA. We could all learn a few things from Henry Ford, if you know what I mean......
Time truly is money

I have also purchased Paul's book and there is a ton of info in it and he continuously updates it.  His YouTube channel is one I also frequent and have learned much that I was not presented to me while in school.  I appreciate what he and all of you here do to help us continue our education.
