So how’s your mechanical aptitude? Here at the Ford Doctors Diesel Technician Society (“mission: to develop a website intended for the free and exclusive use of Ford diesel and truck technicians to share knowledge experiences and advice uninhibited by the manufacturers and owners”) is a test (via) to measure your understanding of sprockets, gearwheels, pulleys, and other stuff you hadn’t thought of since O level physics. They consider 80% to be a pass. I managed 86%, so perhaps a new career with Ford diesel beckons.

    86% also…(considering I’m a contractor, that’s pretty BAD!!)

    66%. But I’m only a psychologist by training, and besides don’t forget this picture of me:
