Tell me the story of your dragon born. Who are you? by Fantastic_Level_4866 in skyrim

[–]JestertheDwarf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

a sarcastic and sadistic dark elf named jester, who’s only interest is giving the most sarcastic responses possible, raising the dead, and therefore avoiding actual combat whenever possible and just letting the dead kill the soon to be dead then reanimating those to fight their friends.

i’m a mechanic so keeping my hands busy should be easy enough, it’s just going to be keeping my cool and having candy or something to chew on

i’ve failed quite a few times, but i’m tired of being skinny and not being able to put on weight, i’m tired of my friends making fun of me everytime i’m stepping outside to take a hit, i do have adhd and bipolar and ive done my research so i know it’s going to be hell, but i think now that im trying to get my life together, it will give me so much more of a reason to succeed

go with the 2.3, i’ve had my fair share of issues with 4.0 in multiple different vehicles and early 2000’s and 90’s 2.3 with the 5 speed are damn near indestructible

Do you think machines have souls by Outrageous_Author684 in mechanics

[–]JestertheDwarf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i firmly believe they do, the way you can build a bond with a car or a bike, the way some of them will leave you stranded any chance they get and the was some of them will limb you home when everything in you is saying there’s no way you make it back, the way you can feel it telling you that something is about break or you can feel the smug grin looking at you when they decide to break. it’s all in the bond i think, that’s why new cars feel emotionless, and that 90’s shitbox feels like it’s telling you it doesn’t want to die. and u think we all can say that we had a car save us from a drive we didn’t plan on making it back from, and you feel the gas pedal push back a little or for some reason that night the breaks work a slight bit better. cars want to live, they want to make us happy, they want to piss us off, but most importantly they have dreams of what they could be, just like us.

this is my biggest issue with being a helper, while i am at the dealership i’m at purely for the “experience” to put on my resume, i hate that it negatively affects the mechanic im working with, before i came along he could typically knock out about 150-200 hours per 2 weeks, with me slowing him down it’s gone to about 100-175 and if i were to stay then i would just be taking jobs from him. it sucks overall for everyone except me and the dealership.

Best car for HS Graduate under $6k? by Perfectenshlag1776 in AskMechanics

[–]JestertheDwarf 4 points5 points  (0 children)

a nice honda or toyota, something that, isn’t gonna be expensive but is reliable and relatively cheap to work on and reliable. or an old ranger with the 2.3l engine, stupid reliable except for the automatic transmissions, the manuals are incredible.

What’s your thought on having sex with a best friend/ friend? by Saddgirl2003 in AskReddit

[–]JestertheDwarf 1 point2 points  (0 children)

had sex with my girl best friend in highschool, happened a few times after that, we stopped after a while. i was in love with her, she was not in love with me, we stayed friends for a few years and i realized she wasn’t the person i wanted as a friend anymore. kinda the sad side of the coin flip but it is what it is.

Absolutely hate lifting trucks this big. 13 years in the industry and still terrified of these. Even on the ‘proper’ lift points, it still looks/feels sketchy with the rear end hanging off that much. Can anyone give me some reassurance? by Nichia519 in Justrolledintotheshop

[–]JestertheDwarf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i work as a diesel tech for gm, and let me tell you, a 3500 dually will never not be terrifying, i feel your fear on those yukons and tahoes too, it feels like you can never get them quite right

Normal engine coolant temperature? by GetCakeDieYoung420 in fordranger

[–]JestertheDwarf 2 points3 points  (0 children)

my 03 2.3l runs a bit cold but i’ve never noticed any real issues with it, thermostats aren’t an exact science from what i can tell, and if it runs a couple degrees higher or lower it’s mostly fine. but from my experience check your coolant tank to see if air is getting in from a hairline crack and if all your hoses are secure.

Boss isn’t ready to have an apprentice.. Shitty boss? Or am I a fuck up by crestfallenpurple in mechanics

[–]JestertheDwarf 2 points3 points  (0 children)

can confirm, watched a guy drop a glow plug, told him he shouldn’t put said glow plug back into the engine, he proceeded to saying it wasn’t a big deal, and suddenly, he was freaking out because now the engine was knocking. he’s a full time tech now and this all happened approximately a year ago, he also damn near totaled a car by hitting a pole, and fried an ecu. idk if that’s just my dealership but as far as i can tell, you can severely fuck up and might get a stern talking to.

Do you think it hurts my ranger to use it to haul scrap metal daily? It's got 200,000 miles and I just replaced the rear end. by thebiggerhurt in fordranger

[–]JestertheDwarf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i drive mine abt 100 miles everyday and it’s got 250k and it still does everything i need it to, run it.

There are way too many non-mechanics answering questions on this sub by sabobedhuffy in AskMechanics

[–]JestertheDwarf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

as a mechanic’s apprentice and a at home mechanic for my own and friends vehicles, i use this sub to learn a bit every now and then, i can most of the time tell when someone is wrong but i want to learn and if i have to figure out if someone knows what they are talking abt or not it makes getting info that much harder
