Agreed. If I survive I will be taking vehicle elsewhere for troubleshooting. Maybe he's ok for routine maintenance? Tires, brakes, filters? Funny thing is hes the owner, three bay shop, has employees but still wrenches on occasion, known him for almost 10 years, he was even in my wedding

Oh well.....
