   You quickly found and corrected the problem. Major projects like car and   
   aircraft engines have been produced for years before someone did that. I   
   identified issues on an a GM engine module, my '78 Honda, an Intel IC, a TI   
   computer and an Air Force radio. Both neighbors' Chevy trucks had major   
   engine defects, one dropped a valve that ruined a cylinder. My '78 Honda had   
   a soft camshaft lobe that I found in time and valve clearance is on the   
   watch list for my present one. My Ranger's U joints were lubed for life,   
   their life, which was a thousand miles beyond the warranty.

   My car was called in but didn't have a defective version, they said.
