You know it would take me at least two hours to change the battery
in my van? That thing is so buried it has an eight inch riser bar
from the positive so you can get a cable on the thing to jump start
a car. What on earth are all those hoses over it anyway? On the
other hand, not fixing it gives time to turn. No money to fix it,
just time to turn.

Had a 62 Chevy with a straight six. Used to climb into the engine
compartment when tuning it. Not quite enough room for a tent ...

Had to climb on that old GM V8 arrangement with the distributor
centered in the back, almost to the firewall. Blazer needed a ladder
or lift.


The Chrysler slant six was bad. The distributor was way down beneath the
slant.
