In my 20's I took my VW carburetor apart in my dining room and laid all the parts out in the order I took it apart.)

I had an employer back in my late 20's who decided that I should be the one to repair a Moped engine that had seized. (I knew nothing whatsoever about engine repair at the time.) He gave me the engine manual, two screwdrivers, a pair of vice-grips, and an adjustable wrench and told me to fix it... I figured out how to take it apart, and placed each piece that I removed into egg cartons in the order I removed them, and found a broken part, which I ordered from the company. When I had it completely disassembled, my employer stumbled into the work bench and knocked over all the egg cartons. Somehow, I managed to get it all back together, and working, with only two small 'things' that I couldn't figure out where to put them. But the moped ran perfectly, and I still have no idea how... and I still have no idea how to fix an engine! It's a good thing he didn't ask me to perform a heart transplant.
