I wonder if I can buy stock in the part store he goes to?

You didn't call Bob and Ian "parts-monkies." You laid that label on all mechanics.

Oh, now it's because Bob and Ian have "attitudes." Earlier, you claimed that it was because they throw parts at a problem at $100 an hour.

Being a prick when called names is completely justified.

That you certainly are.

And yes, I appreciate top-posting. So f*ck off.

I may have mentioned this before, but I'm thinking your wife and my wife might be sisters.

Why? Is your wife also proud of all the money you piss away on training and equipment when you could be making $100/hour for just hanging parts on? Bob

I didn't buy one. I thought about it, and figured if I stuck the money that the Modis would have cost into a laptop and software, I'd have a hell of a lot more tool for the money. (plus I'm leery of Snap-Ons claims) I bought a new laptop instead, which is going to/is being loaded with all sorts of neat software. AES wave. Ease scan software Service management program Pico scope if I can get it without the low amps probe which I already own 3 versions of. I just finished up the wireless network last night...

The laptop is going into my custom built diagnostic cabinet which will have (from top to bottom) my Counsellor 2 on top, the laptop on the second level, C2 accessories in the top drawer, the red brick in the second drawer, my LS-2000 and accessories and timing light in the third drawer, with the bottom (deep) drawer holding the fuel pressure gauge set, the smoke machine, my speedglas helmet and a few other odds and ends. I got to remember to forward a picture of all this to Jim Linder cause I believe he collects pictures/examples of mechanics versions of their diagnostic carts.

Given the price difference and similarities, the Genisis is still in consideration though.

No it won't. Can (maybe) but not will.

Hardly. While the circut is as you describe, the effects of increased resistance in one of the redundant circuts would be countered by the ECM. The ECM monitors fuel pump voltage and adjusts the fuel injector pulse width to compensate for fluctuations in voltage. This is what allows the engine to continue to run when the alternator fails. At least, it'll run until the battery dies.
