We're not trying to be tough on him, even tough love. But diesel and gasoline engines can be like two completely different languages. Some guys speak one, but just haven't yet made the investment of time to be functional with the other. Many of us on here who are comfortable playing around with diesels would be lost trying to deal with a complicated problem on a gas engine.
A person could even be a deeply skilled professional expert in one world, but still become a novice when trying to translate their skill to the other.
Doesn't mean they can't learn (and certainly your guy sounds like he wants to get it right).
