New show out y’all! Had on @inkdanarchist and we talk Fascism, National Socialism and some disturbing trends of both in America.
Also, apologize for the crackling audio. Software driver issue. Should be fixed next week! https://t.co/XypfOuKqAf
@FrankBr05713205 Ok, but it’s auto tech, not ag tech program, right?
This is part of why we have a tech shortage. Students get trained on obsolete tech.
I rebuilt a carb in school. not helpful.
We get new techs often that don’t understand voltage drop. makes it hard to make a living.
@FrankBr05713205 This mostly only happens on poorly built, afterthought AWD systems. that one looks like it’s out of a fiat. i mean jeep
On subarus tires typically only wear the transfer clutches prematurely. cheap fix comparatively.
@burrito69420@kenfarmer@LightKnightAceT That’s weird i just a had to write a check for $12,000 to have a new well dug so i could have water.
i looked under my pillow and i guess the Subsidy Fairy missed my house this year.
@DTPhillips79@TravisAbbott429@FrankBr05713205 Ummmm…you guys know engines still break, right?
i do engine work on modern cars all the time.
And i hate to tell you this but the magic laptop doesn’t give you the answer. You still have to diagnose. but now you have to understand electricity.
@FrankBr05713205 I’m gonna guess you work somewhere where rust is not a major issue.
I love battery tools but my IR air gun gets the job done when my 1/2 battery gun fails
@Magnum_442@FrankBr05713205 It’s not and it even spells it out under most warranty policies but i have yet to see the dealer i work for deny a warranty claim due to tuning a car.
We’ve had tow ins, from a tune shop w/5000 miles, blown engine get their car fixed for free.
@FrankBr05713205@justdave0000 There is a flip side..many of these parts don’t break, or break less often.
It’s just when they do, the repair cost is higher.
Hands down, cars of today are far more reliable than cars when i started wrenching professionally.
@CherylPerdue1@shawngorham this is only done when there is damage to document on drop off.
mileage is written down due to state law.
hardly anyone documents fuel level.
And this is done because it would blow your mind how many people try to blame the shop for pre-existing damage.
@shawngorham@Bwhite4363 It’s not. nobody that works flat rate has time to siphon gas. it’s not even possible on a lot of cars.
most “shady” behavior = customer not understanding what needs done and advisor poorly communicating to them
@FrankBr05713205@ahlstar24 This is true. I have never seen an electric rack break due to anything other than direct impact-curb, etc
But like most car repairs..we just find broken parts. I generally don’t have a clue why something broke. nor do i have time to find out why
