I so totally identify with this. After I curse up a storm, throw some tools, maybe punch the car and hurt my hand..........I figure it out and beat the mf'er. In some ways it's like golf, you have 100 terrible shots that put you in a rage, but there's that one good shot that keeps you coming back. For me that's a how I feel working on cars. There's the frustration of a challenge, and the satisfaction of solving it. Plus I'm an anal-retentive SOB and there are very few people that meet my standards.
