Technical Hour
Do you want a succinct and correct answer to your technical question?
Simply call John Twist during his Technical Hour and your problem
is quickly and effortlessly answered! John stands by the phone during
his lunch your, waiting for your query. Call between 1:00 - 2:00pm
Eastern Standard Time, Monday through Friday. Please be patient -
EVERYONE calls long distance! John tries to limit the calls to three
minutes, especially during busy days - but some require more time.
Contact him at (616) 682-0800. Sometimes, because the shop is busy,

conversation later in the evening.
During the morning and afternoon, John works on MGs, takes test
drives, works with other mechanics, talks with customers - or he
does the myriad jobs bosses are wont to do. He simply cannot stop
