my car myself?
some repair jobs are simple enough to be done at home. but without the right tools, you could just be spinning your wheels and wasting time. this is yet another scenario that requires you to weigh your options. tools cost money, and the amount you spend on those tools might be far more than you would end up paying at a professional auto repair shop. but if those very same tools will come in handy down the road for future self-serve repairs, it could be a smart investment.
are there any safety concerns here that might cause me to let a pro handle it instead?
always put your own safety
