+1 to the instruction descriptive text. There have been steps that even though I've been around the block a few times, I've guessed on.

Seems especially true in motor mount "pictures" (sure as heck aint instructions). They will show marking off distances on the motor tube, then later show inserting the mount up to one of the marks.


If there were descriptive text in the instructions, it'd be in Chinglish, or Engrish, whichever you prefer... They CERTAINLY wouldn't pay US rates for a technical writer to write the instructions...

Later! OL JR
