The biggest job I've undertaken so far
was replacing the breather system on my car. After spending a year trying to get four different garages to diagnose the fault (intermittent power loss), I consulted the internet, discovered it was a fairly common problem involving split hoses and spent a day replacing the lot along with a few dependant valves and sensors.

Considering my tool kit consists of a few spanners and a ratchet screwdriver, I was pretty proud of myself. Especially since access to the area was through a triangular gap in front of the inlet manifold about the size of a letterbox at its widest point.
