A young mechanic age 23 worked with me for a while. He happen to see a Tach-Dwell Meter in my tool box and asked what that was for. What you described works both ways. Us older mechanics can't work on these newer engines either unless you keep up with the schooling and work with it everyday. These new vehicles you can hook up a computer and it can tell you it's not getting a reading from a certain sensor but it may be a broken wire which it can't tell you that. For you to say a collector should know and research the topic, that would be nice but many people collect or have hobby that make them feel good or be with other people and they're not worried about details, history, how it works. They just have the money to let some one else work on the item. Like they way the worst football player makes the best coach.. I always did say the biggest mistake a person can make is thinking some one else knows what you know.. We don't know anything about space ships because we don't use them or have a need for them. So why would someone expect us to?
Don't be so Vain with your mechanic. Evidently you don't know how to work on it either or you wouldn't have taken it to him or your expectations were wrong.

Today's Featured Article - 12-Volt Conversions for 4-Cylinder Ford 2000 & 4000 Tractors - by Tommy Duvall. After two summers of having to park my old 1964 model 4000 gas 4 cyl. on a hill just in case the 6 volt system, for whatever reason, would not crank her, I decided to try the 12 volt conversion. After some research of convert or not, I decided to go ahead, the main reason being that this tractor was a working tractor, not a show tractor (yet). I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
