When one bolt or lugnut is tight/siezed, tighten the other bolts around it to relieve some of the pressure. Works well when removing that stupid lug lock mentioned before.

get all the tools and stuff out before lowering the car!

Check on the cardboard creeper, Especially with long hair! If you expect dirt, grease globs and junk to fall off the latest project, throw some under too. Keeps the stuff from getting ground into the floor. Makes getting that tool that fell easier to get too.

Chassis and suspension work requires a BFH.

If springs or suspension parts won't align easily, don't try to force them laying on the ground. Get a come-along or tie down strap. Tighten all the bolts with the suspension loaded (car on the ground)!

On a /6, just pull the dist. to change points and condenser. You need to inspect that plastic gear anyway...
