Right there with you, @tylerr39 hit the nail on the head. Heat gun for the win.

Tell your credit union's fraud department you want a stop payment form ready to go before you ever send a Zelle.

Yeah that "simple old ways work better" thing... I've seen it play out so many times. My buddy tried using a laser alignment tool on this old Chevy 454 and spent three hours chasing numbers. I told him to just grab a straightedge and a feeler gauge, done in twenty minutes. The laser stuff is great for newer cars with tight tolerances but on anything with some miles and wear, you gotta feel it out. That old school knowledge about how much slop is acceptable is something you just can't learn from a manual.
