as i used to be in a parts store for many years my experience from the inside is "look for the old man, the old man that has been in the same store for 30+ years" that old man has knowledge, he's been up the road and over the mountain more than once, with everything from a ford tractor to a 18 wheeler and knows where stuff is at, and if he doesnt have it, he knows who does. most big name parts stores have acces to ag parts, they just have to know they do, some " corner stores" just have the simple stuff for the "weekend mechanic," this guy does something else for a living, but enjoys tinkering with his car on his days off, he doesnt get into the heavy stuff , so the store has a low inventory, and is manned teen or 20 something with a hardware store in his face, a ripped t shirt on, shorts, and his cap on backwards, and he is wondering why he doesnt make anymore than minumim wage, his knowledge is very basic and his experience is almost non exestant
