Adjusting a carburetor.

I was never really good at it, I never actually went through with selling my soul to Satan to gain true knowledge of that black art.

If that's your idea if fun, I can recommend the game My Summer Car. It's basically a simulator for Finnish country life in the 90's.
You spend most of your time drinking, going to the sauna, driving a crappy old Datsun hatchback (which you first have to rebuild in excruciating detail) down country roads, and adjusting your car's carburetor.

Sounds like how I spent my summers in Canada, but substitute a Chevette hatchback and a hottub.

I looked up a gameplay series, and there is so much minutia remining me of Norwegian country life as well. The ticketing machine on the bus is exactly as I remember it from the 90's.
