Old timer at the supply house changed how I check door locks
Ran into a retired mechanic named Ed over at Star Elevator Supply in Pittsburgh last Thursday. He watched me grab a standard door lock tester and just shook his head, said I was missing half the problem by not checking the latch engagement under load. Now I always run the car with a full load before signing off on lock adjustments, saved me three callbacks this month. Anyone else pick up a trick like that from the graybeards?

Ha! I'd probably need a case just to remember half of what I've already forgotten.
