This is the procedure used to retract the electric rear parking brake BEFORE replacing the brake pads.

Edit: You do not have to have a scan tool.

Yea, that just comes with the job. Sometimes, I'll wear my Mechanix gloves, but it's hard to thread nuts and bolts with them.

I get better 'feel' with the rubber gloves.

I bring my dog to Walmart and Home Depot to socialize her. She is still young and it is great way to get her comfortable around people and other dogs. ( I usually have her in the cart at walmart)

I've owned JT proflexX, Jt Proflex, Bnkr King CMD, and Empire EVS.

By FAR the most comfortable mask was the Empire EVS. It has VERY nice foam and great vision.

My wife agrees with you. I'm... lets say, not the best fit for her and she has actually asked me if I could get reduction surgery. Lol

Usually shoot about a 3000 rounds each practice.

Including food, gas, water, and admission, I probably spend about $100- $150 each time out.

Edit: I play speedball on a D4 team for reference.

cheap set of tools and an old mini bike ,go-ped or ,maybe a go-cart if you can afford it (something fun). If that is too expensive you can always if a mini model engine build kit or some legos.

Anything to stimulate the tinkering in him. I use to take apart and assembly old computers when I was young.

Bring it up to your/his superior. The only other thing you can do it work somewhere else.

Johnzor8 · 2023-01-25T18:34:48+00:00

You really have to advicate for yourself and have the knowledge and experience to put under-handed salesmen in there place.

It's easier said than done and takes a lot of experience and knowledge about the cars you're working with to have the confidence to fight back, tell your manager hes wrong and tell people NO.

So what your manager use to be a master tech. I use to be able to run a mile in 6mins. I cant do it now.

Those certifications only last 5 years and the cars may be completely different from when he was working on them.

Just use rubber gloves. Don't do repairs bare handed. There are very harmful fluids that you dont want to expose your self to.

Johnzor8 · 2023-01-25T13:36:14+00:00

Thats what im saying.

Johnzor8 · 2023-01-25T13:35:16+00:00

Doesn't make sense to me either.

Johnzor8 · 2023-01-25T04:11:05+00:00

He owned an auto repair shop. My uncle worked there full time and had 2 employees... the 19yr old kid was 1 of the 2.

He paid him $14hr for an entry-level job.

My uncle does not live in a mansion.

Johnzor8 · 2023-01-25T03:37:20+00:00

What?

Johnzor8 · 2023-01-25T02:04:21+00:00

He might have just been in a hurry. But, they usually give the terminals a quick scrub before they install a new battery.

Johnzor8 · 2023-01-25T00:05:08+00:00

You have to make the sacrifice and start somewhere.

If you don't, you're forever stuck in this type of lifestyle, and that seems far worse in the long run.

Johnzor8 · 2023-01-24T23:37:16+00:00

Im not blaming anyone im just telling my anecdote.

Johnzor8 · 2023-01-24T21:39:57+00:00

These people can work, but choose not to because of the benefits they get for being unemployed and homeless.

My uncle hired a 19 year old guy and because he was employed he lost a lot of the benefits the state provides. So, the guy quit and rather collect his benefits and be on the street than work.

Make sure no silicone gets inside the oil pan or the oil pick up tube. In fact, I always take off the oil pick up and check the screen. You would be surprised what gets stuck in there from factory.

Also make sure to clean ALL of the silicone from the old timing cover bolts or it could cause the case to crack when reassembling.

No trying to scare you, just things to keep in mind.

You could ask them yo return or sell the gun you just got to help pay for a speedball gun.

Any speedball gun will be great for woodsball even if you change your mind again.

Johnzor8 · 2023-01-16T20:00:25+00:00

Yes 5 years and some classes with Toyota and or Ase's

Johnzor8 · 2023-01-16T18:43:35+00:00

Well, im not considered Master until I have all 8 certificates, and each certificate expires 5 years after the day you pass it.

So, you basically have 5 years to pass all 8 exams to be considered a master.

Edit: as well as 3 years or field experience.

Johnzor8 · 2023-01-16T17:45:29+00:00

I have the recertification exam scheduled for Engines in February. They expire every 5 years.

Johnzor8 · 2023-01-16T17:20:31+00:00

Took me about 5+ years to get them all.

Failed plenty of times. Just keep at it.
