I really rarely use local parts suppliers. Most of the time they don't stock anything. That and the clueless dolts that they have working behind the counter, it makes it difficult to even attempt to buy from them. I try to plan all of my projects ahead of time and order online (RockAuto, Amazon, etc). I have had much better luck with online parts than local.


Never, ever argue with an IDIOT. They will drag you to their level and then beat you with their years of experience
