Mobile Wrenches

Really great mechanic with even better work ethic. I was swinging through town on KY way to GA and my car was running really hot. Had to get it towed the last 15 miles. He was one of the few who were willing to help me out in short notice and trust me it wasn't because he isn't booked. Was finishing up a transmission when I pulled up. We didn't really know what the issue was so he tried a few things. Ended up changing the thermostat (posted a pic) and was going to put a new water pump and some new tubing in. Ended up saving me some money when he phoned his father for some advice and was told to try a new radiator cap. That ended up working but was still running a little high. Was enough to get me to my destination two hours away though with no issues. Took it straight to my family mechanic and dropped it off and hopped on the plane overseas. With some extra time he was able to diagnose the issue. I'm sure the mechanic at Mobile Wrenches had the same idea that the radiator was super clogged up and I'm sure he could have hooked me up if I had the time to leave him the vehicle so nothing against him. I was just passing through. If I stayed closer he would definitely be my go to guy. Anyways my vehicle ended up needing a full 2 day flush to get as much of that gunk out as possible. My mechanic did it the old school way of that means anything. I was told that I'll probably need another full flush in a year or so. Just bought the vehicle a few months ago from someone who inherited it from their parents. It was barely driven the last few years and prior to that only to church and around town. 20 YR car with 48k miles. Can't really beat that in this used car market today. But all that sitting around, especially not in a garage, definitely was the culprit behind this issue. Again big thanks to Mobile Wrenches for coming in the clutch and helping me avoid missing my flight. Would definitely recommend.
