That's fine, because it is your money and your car, and only you need to deal with the outcome; but for someone that some people consider a "reliable" informational source to recommend a questionable procedure to those somewhat uninitiated as to what can be the unexpected result is simply not acceptable.

Engine support bars are not overly expensive, even Horror Freight sells one. They work on just about any vehicle and get everything out of the way when working safely beneath the car. They are a useful and inexpensive addition to any shop's equipment.
