Any suggestions on a local auto repair shop? I have an older car that needs to pass emissions and the engine light is on.

See Steve at Cassidy Tire on Rte 14. They are right around the corner from the emissions place. We had the same problem a couple years ago and didn't want to spend a lot of money on a fix. They had the car for a day and a half and went back and forth between their shop and testing until they got it to pass. VERY reasonable. Love them ❤️
Does anyone know of an HONEST mechanic around Crystal Lake, or a cliff near by I can push this piece of crap off of?

Advanced Auto and Truck Repair in Palatine, right by Durty Nellie's. Our friend Jeremy Garnett is a mechanic there. We've been screwed over a few times until we started going there. Pretty sure you can get a free estimate. And they will work with you on price. Good luck!
