   One of my biggest problems is finding the time or weather conditions.  Some   
   stuff I just can't do in our garage since some repairs make too much of a mess   
   (ie. water pump replacement).  Of course it was 15 degrees F outside when I   
   started the project.  After I completed the messy part of removal, I drove the   
   car into the garage to finish it.  We also had about 20-30mph winds that day,   
   too.  Not fun to be doing auto repair.  At least I have a portable heater in   
   the garage, so all was good once in there.   
      
   I also seem to always need just one more tool that I don't have for the   
   repair.  I bought this hose clamp removal tool that was a lifesaver on that   
   project. Some of those clamps were IMPOSSIBLE to get to without it.
