most people rather buy food than cook themselves.

for office workers, its possible to save alot of money by bringing precooked food from home and warming it up later. But not many would do it.

come to cars, many people cannot be bothered to check tire pressure, tire tread depth, engine coolant level, wiper fluid level, or ensure brake fluid and power steering fluid change every 2 yrs.

what more diy engine cover gasket? where got time? some might even ask what is that?

A lot of owners are also afraid that if they open the bonnet and meddle with something, the car will breakdown.

Need a lot of tools to even dismantle and hoist it out.

This guy makes it look easy, but his engine is already on a hoist. Different story when it's still mounted on your car.

Anyway, I have no issue paying money to get it done This kind is too complicated for me to attempt...

Dont need to hoist out. Top gasket is quite easy to DIY.

most b&b cars have transversely mounted inline engines, making diy possible. Not so if u got an inline mounted engine or a v engine.
