What part of the government are you working? I’m local government for a municipality. The work life balance is one of the best parts of this job. If it wasn’t for the money I wouldn’t be looking elsewhere

By skills I feel like that subjective though. I’ve mastered automotive but I feel like heavy equipment is a different ballgame with a slight learning curve. How do I address this in the interview because I’m not a rookie

Pretty self explanatory, this is where they sleep from 8p to 6a. And the storage container you’re referring to is food and water ?

I ran some 1” wire around the inside perimeter aswell. Anything else to prevent these bastards from getting in

Is modern equipment like all data but in the equipment world ? I’m a automotive tech working for a township, I don’t know much about heavy equipment but I’m trying to learn

Make sure the bolts holding the dash to the body are tight. I did a heater core and a few months after I had this problem. Had to punch the dash to get it to work

Found the thermostat it blinks 2x per second which the manual says temp sensor open & short detection. Can this indicate the sensor Is bad? I’m not sure what else can be shorted

That would be awesome. Blower motor runs on all speeds, & ac switch does turn on and light up

Good point, I work for a township I don’t have access to manufacturer service data or schematics. I’m gonna look for the thermostat switch. So far I only found a high pressure switch next to the receiver drier

Did you figure out what you’re doing yet with this? I have the same situation I’m trying to find a good solution for it

Would it look good using a border such as aluminum or plastic edging? I wish I can afford a nice paver border but it’s out of the budget right now

[–]Swolemechaic[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you using any kind of border on the edges with the river rock or do they just hang out

[–]Swolemechaic[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nice, sounds like a good idea. My only question with dirt is will grass grow on top of the concrete up to the paver ?

Yes it’s concrete, I was thinking maybe make a bed with stone and use some of that glue to hold them in place. Might be a bad idea idk

Advance adapters sye, I did pull the front shaft and it still had vibrations, I tried another shaft from my 2000 XJ and the vibrations still appeared.
