^^^^ that is a bit unfair.
What proportion of cars on the road are Ford Escorts or cars with carbs and non electronic ignition? I reckon less than 1 %.
Modern cars, i.e. less than 10 years old, will have on board computer so the garage monkeys plug into the diagostic port and the the computers tell them what is wrong and what to replace. Very little skill and thinking is required, wich is a good job as people are becoming stupider.
What is the incentive for the GMs to learn about old cars that they will very rarely seen? It's like working in a electrical retailers and needing to know how to repair a limelight or in a garage and knowing about steam engines. Pointless.
If you cannot set the timing or adjsut the misture, then you should not be owning such an antiquated car.
