I would be taking a similar approach. It's pretty safe to say my knowledge of those things isn't as extensive, but still.

Around '96 there was a new tenant in my old building who knew how to work on EFI, which I think ticked off the super who could fix just about anything else on a vehicle. However, the super serviced arcade machines regularly and often worked on TVs and other electronics, so go figure.
