The ones you trust are the ones that without fail are ripping you off the worst. I say this as a former mechanic....

TKX in Huntington NY.
Tasso is a stand up guy.
Once doing my 1st valve adjustment on the car.
Screwed it up. I posted here for advice then went out of town on business for two weeks.
He saw the post, replied that he was having a valve adjustment clinic that weekend and to stop by. Obviously I missed it since I was out of town.
Popped into the shop shortly after returning and he told me about it then walked me over to a motor he had on the stand and gave me a private clinic on the spot.
Another time, doing my oil pressure switch, called and asked him how do you get a wrench under that thing? He told me to come over and then lent me his custom shaved crows foot.
Needed to store my Benz somewhere for a couple of weeks. Turned into nearly a year. He kept it covered, battery maintained and ran it regularly. When I did pick it up I gave him a big handful of cash cause I know he was not going to ask for a dime.
Whenever my car needed to go into the shop they would always come pick it up and drop it off or ferry me back and forth.
