Service socket for starter 200

Hi there!

There nothing wrong with being surprised like everyone else is!


Manufacturers reserve the right to make changes due to outside forces beyond their control just because, that’s how life works daily!
The things that do get planned for are obsolescence or to just making things less expensive for profit, it seems.
The one wire removed saved money and made the remote starter business IN to make some money. Tools for this or that specific task!
I saw a YouTube on the Volvo 3.2 Six and it was shocking.
No wonder Volvo is quitting IC engines!

DIY’s might be a dying breed, but I bet, electric vehicles will bring just as many things as above!
They cannot even make the power input method a simple standard everywhere!
Our global economy thrives on change, since we don’t ever stand still and neither does the cosmos, but planet Earth, is ridiculously alone on this most of the time!

I see that Kitty is working in the Technical Writing Profession.
I bet he is aware of all kinds of changes and how hard it is to keep up!
I have about 45 years of Popular Science magazines stashed away.
I unsubscribed in 2013 due to the lack of journalism content with each article.
The magazine went to page and a half a single photo and no reading columns continued!
The columns, Now have the line “ Read more on-line @.com. It was +$5.99 more!
Actually the photos are better due to the computer screens resolution.
I subscribed to the Brickboard as a Sunday driver on his updated site!

I wonder if Kitty uses speech recognition software?
I still prefer fingers and it’s tempting, but I don’t say words completely right either!

A mess of an Old man and a Young man, I used to be!
I have cleaned up a little though!
(:-)

Phil
