Serious question, why do today's marine mechanics need a degree in computer science just to change a spark plug?
I learned on engines that you could fix with basic tools and common sense.

My buddy replaced a fuel pump and still needed a dealership computer reset.

Wait, is that really a thing now? That sounds like such a hassle just to fix a simple part. Sometimes I wonder if dealerships make stuff up to get you in the door. Seems wild that a fuel pump needs a special computer reset. Could be one of those things people online make a bigger deal about than it really is. Maybe your buddy just got unlucky with his car model, a normal mechanic should be able to handle most of that stuff.

Ever notice how newer cars feel like they're fighting you on simple fixes, jake322? Makes you wonder if some of that dealer talk is just to keep their techs in business.
