After more than 70 years of observations , I made one very important
discovery.   When we suspect someone's ignorance , it is often brought
about by our ignorance of the persons knowledge .

Here are a few of my pratfalls .  # 1.  5 pistons in a 4 square engine.  
# 2.  Installing propeller backwards on an ultra-light airplane. # 3 .Filling
Rabbit with fresh oil -- without plug in pan. # 4.  Installing oil-filter with
old o ring still on block. # 5. Injector with two heat-shields. # 5. Locked
camshaft -- no I did not use starter -- only barring. # 6. Frying harness
by accidentally shorting terminal on solenoid. (things still work) sure
smoked a lot.

Looks like we are not alone .   LOL.                                  Hagar.
