How to make an enemy

cars, inlcuding early 1960s Lark station wagon. I really didn't need
any more Studies at that time, but...
I went and signed out the keys and started the statiinary look over.
It idled roughly.
I saw that two sparkplug wires were wrong and repositioned them so it
ran smoothly.
Then. I looked up and saw a man giving me a really hateful look,
I returned the keys.made a low bid and walked away.I t was only then
that I figured out the nasty look!I

After they get the adjustment they fix the wires and drive it home ;)
