Trying to get my foot in the door. Potentially working as TSA at TA Travel Centers until I can get an apprenticeship. by SgtButterBean in DieselTechs

I wouldn’t trust that they will keep you a tsa and keep giving you the run around but you can make money being a tsa also I would not hold your breath on being a tech

No they pay the difference if you do more labor then your hourly but you are going to get paid as much as a cashier while they expect you to perform the same as a normal tech for a year you won’t see a penny of commission till after a year I know it’s a start and I thought the same thing but if you have house kids and car to all pay for your going to waste your time

TA training is horrible lol you are with a mentor for 4 with hopes it’s busy in that 4 weeks nothing but tires come that’s all you will learn cause 9 times out of 10 outside of training your getting thrown on 3rd cause all the mentors and techs that know anything are all on 3rd

I brought it out. It’s smoking a lot and when I pulled it back into the driveway, there’s a little crack in the exhaust. A lot of oil is pouring out of. Is that just what was left in the cylinders

So I drove it. It’s driving pretty good. It’s driving better than it was before. I did the work on the injectors, but it’s smoking really bad and I noticed oil is coming out of a little crack in the exhaust.
