Hi, I’m Mike. I’ve spent most of my life around engines. My dad ran a small repair shop when I was growing up in Indiana. I started helping him in the garage when I was a teenager. At first I was just cleaning tools and handing him wrenches. Before long I was pulling apart small engines and learning how everything worked. After studying automotive technology in college, I spent years working in repair shops and dealerships. I’ve worked on everything from everyday car engines to motorcycles and marine engines.
