So over the course of my older life, I've have a couple of times tried to Express to some of the younger guys(most of who are at least twice as smart as me and 2/3 younger), that when you've been wrenching on a car for 38+ hours straight, they will get so much more done if they rest up, step away and take their mind off the car problems.
Then come back fresh and begin where they left off. It's a fact, once you have hit the proverbial wall, you must stop. Having gotten my message across, they all ask the same last question... how do I know when I've hit The Wall?
Since I'm obviously an old master mechanic (cough) I give them examples like being forgetful, unable to work out problems logically. But if you want a sure fire sign that you should stop, you will see something like what I just did ater thrashinhg on it for 2 days, no sleep at all.
Enjoy the pic at my expense. This isn't staged I swear I actually did install a brake pad backwards. And had it ready for a test drive.
