It's not hard for a mechanic to diagnose a bad head gasket even if he 
isn't a super master god like mechanic with a million dollar machine 
(that customers should be glad to pay for) like Jim. Jim dispenses good 
answers when his panties aren't all bunched up in his ass because you've 
got poor grammar or you bottom post. When he chooses to answer his 
expertise is worth putting up with his grouchy superior nature. sometimes.

You maybe a rocket scientist but to Jim you are a dumbass because you 
can't diagnose a bad head gasket.
