I went back and watched the video again and my original suppositions were
wrong. We used to judge how difficult a job was by how much beer one had to
consume to complete it. Changing an alternator would be a 1 or 2 beer job,
changing a clutch & pressure plate a half case & so on. That set up is
definitely a full case job, but you can't start the beer until after the
down staircase or you would be so clumsy that you would set the thing in
motion before you were finished. Ha!
