[quote="CVPost-jimg.allentown"](quoted from post at 13:15:26 12/15/15) When somebody tells me that a poorly running engine needs a tune-up, I terminate the transaction immediately.
Why, you ask??
Because I know right off the bat that they are hiding something. Could be burned valve or valves, blown head gasket, major electrical problems, and the list goes on. My reasoning is that if it REALLY only needed a tune-up, the seller would have done that to make it a prime sellable machine. It was obviously attempted, and found to be a more serious problem. So, they cover it up by saying it "just needs a tune-up." A HUGE RED FLAG in my book.[/quote
When someone tells me something needs a tuneup I just ask why do you say that? Most likely they asked someone they know why it is not running right because they don't have the knowledge to trouble shoot it themselves, and without giving the guy an opportunity to check into it, so the guy is most likely going to suggest a tuneup because that is just a general answer. I hate to automatically think that everyone is out to get me.

In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
