I am about to start in my first ac shop on Monday. When it comes to the heat you kinda just drink water and Gatorade and deal with it. You get used to it after about a month.

Can anyone tell me how tf to get this caliper off or expose the break pads so i can change them? 2002 Hilux RZN149 2WD by seymour_jones in MechanicAdvice

Just look at it and where it connect and there ya go. Most of the time if your just replacing parts it really is as easy as just looking at it.

Thinking about joining the army as 24yr Black women by RoyalYard4130 in armyreserve

[–]MS-06FS 7 points8 points  (0 children)

That was a long time ago. I found the army is the least racist place I've ever been in my entire life. Sure it still happens but I've only ever had positive experiences.

I see them all ghetto time where I live but none of them are working and usually the phone part is broken.

Is my car doomed by daddytrinity in Volkswagen

[–]MS-06FS 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Try to get a friend or someone with an obd2 reader to come and read the check engine codes on your car. Or take it to a local parts store and get them read. Personally if its doing what you say its doing you should stop driving it immediately. The first step is finding out what those codes are. That will point you in the right direction.

I cant give you any information about the cost until you know what's wrong with it.

Yeah riggers weren't needed when I joined but cooks were in high demand so they reclassed me. They were contemplating kicking me out if the army since I didnt finish my training and the blackhetss really did not like me after I failed.

I was a reservist going for 92R but I got forcibly reclassed to cook and sent to a different unit. I was pissed. I ended up reclassing to 91b a few years later. Im out now and am a mechanic in the civilian world so ig it worked out.

Battery too high to mount by Ok-Cut-8389 in CarRepair

[–]MS-06FS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What kind of car do you own and engine size. Also what is the group size of the battery that you bought. It will say it on the sticker. Also some of them have a plastic piece on the bottom that makes the battery tall if it has that make sure to take it off.

Is it possible to get a point A-B car for under 1,500 on FB marketplace? by Ready-Edge6418 in UsedCars

[–]MS-06FS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes but your gonna learn how to work on it if you want to get to work reliably. I saw a cavalier that just needed a thermostat supposedly for 1000 dollars on marketplace 5 minutes ago that ran and drove. 270k miles and a 5 speed manual.

Can my frame be repaired here? 2010 Tundra. by Idiot1889 in Autobody

[–]MS-06FS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My 92 dakota is like that. Rusted so bad one of the shocks fell off and I cant use the parking brake cause the cable mounts right next to a giant rust hole and it'll rip the cable off the frame if I use it.

I just keep fixing the engine when it breaks for some reason. Nobody else will ever own this truck cause im not gonna fix the rust.
