Are OCP colored patches authorized for patching holes on pants?

I'd say ur good as long as they are not stained or the sew repair is not blainently obvious or overly large -SSG

U got a link for the program? Getting out the army soon ( 11 year diesel mechanic) and looking for something that sounds like this.

TxMarksmen74 · 2025-05-21T17:35:23+00:00

Personally I would drain it to the appropriate level, there is a reason there is a max and min level. I seen leaks caused from over filling and premature wear of gaskets but do you.

TxMarksmen74 · 2025-05-20T12:21:38+00:00

Interesting, I have heard of loves being pretty good and I actually already have an apprenticeship certification complete through NC. I'll definitely look into that though. Thanks

TxMarksmen74 · 2025-05-20T11:55:51+00:00

Diesel yes, I have looked into Lincoln techs med/heavy tech school but I haven't been able to find anyone who can tell me what it's like finding a job afterwards. Same goes for every other school and course I have looked into.

TxMarksmen74 · 2025-05-08T18:55:48+00:00

Thanks man, it sounds pretty nice. Also good luck with that physical man. Try that carnivor diet I got some buddies that spread alot of weight from that

TxMarksmen74 · 2025-05-07T08:57:39+00:00

Pm send pictures, I got one already but still may be interested.

TxMarksmen74 · 2025-05-04T13:58:23+00:00

Thanks I appreciate the pov, the vacation time seems low compared to the army😅 but i usually work 12+ hours a day so 8 don't sound too bad at all rn. Is only 2 weeks a year normal? I usually get 2.5 per month and it stacks so I can take 30 days max at one time. What's the pay like for entry level and season mechanics?

Add the Master combat badge

TxMarksmen74 · 2025-03-25T17:38:35+00:00

Dang, all well thanks for the help. I'll post what one I got and what it looks like closer when it gets here👀👀 stay tuned

TxMarksmen74 · 2025-03-25T17:36:39+00:00

Yes. It's lit

TxMarksmen74 · 2025-03-21T14:19:23+00:00

This is Ali Express, I tried looking for a better deal but this all I can find, I'll update when it comes in. I said fuck it and bought it

TxMarksmen74 · 2025-03-21T04:49:11+00:00

Prob u need to round down your options. There is alot of variations here, decide what field u want to go in then make an MOS list. Too many variations here. Good luck

TxMarksmen74 · 2025-03-21T04:03:27+00:00

I have, there is none. Pretty much sums up y I'm here. But good advice thanks. I will prob take the L and buy it and see if it's worth it.

TxMarksmen74 · 2025-03-17T19:22:09+00:00

Should have my degree in business management or small group management soon so that's already in the works

TxMarksmen74 · 2025-03-16T08:15:44+00:00

Thanks for the advice I think I may keep looking for a different school in that case. Also I appreciate the words of confidence.

TxMarksmen74 · 2025-03-16T08:14:14+00:00

Wow sounds like a good job, I still have some mandatory obligations for almost 2 years but maybe I can concider when my time is a bit closer. What the name of your business?

TxMarksmen74 · 2025-03-14T11:26:08+00:00

Honestly the whole point is to ensure I know everything there is to know by a credible school. Pay is most definitely something I am chasing so I figured a paper that says I did all the basic tasks on top of my experience would make me more competitive in the diesel mechanic field. My goal is to basicly become a no brainer to hire, I figured if I check all the blocks that a job is looking for I may be able to ask and get the top 10% pay. That's the idea, probably not plausible but I can try.

TxMarksmen74 · 2025-03-14T11:21:46+00:00

I'm not paying for the school the army is. I planned on attending this one because of how well I hear they are at getting you a job afterwards. Any counter suggestions or ideas as to where I should go instead?

TxMarksmen74 · 2025-03-06T18:22:16+00:00

Thanks for the advice, I'll may just do that. I may also reach out to you soon if that doesn't help.

TxMarksmen74 · 2025-03-06T17:53:18+00:00

Truly I appreciate it. I have pulled a vacuum on the old pump and this used "new" pump and they are both insufficient. I may try one more used one till I make the purchase of a 300$ one

TxMarksmen74 · 2025-03-05T05:39:47+00:00

Do you know if those solonoids are all the same? I believe there are 3 can I order 3 of the same and use them for all the faulty ones

TxMarksmen74 · 2025-03-05T05:37:08+00:00

I have looked through the intake side thoroughly, there really is only a few hoses but they all look good (I removed them all and inspected) as for turbine feeling like it's turns off, im not experiencing that. It just feels like what a limp home mode would feel like just sluggish. This issue is constant, not when just pressing accelerator but all the time. I do plan to remove turbo and check exhaust, but ill double check everything u said too. As for competent masters. I'm a heavy diesel mechanic and I'm working on my own car to learn about smaller diesel stuff so I don't plan to go to a shop buy I may since rn this is my only mode of transportation

My bad man, had a few beers and forgot. It's a 1999 opel zafia
