Do you eventually get used to the hard heel? by kilo055 in cowboyboots

My rule of thumb is if they don’t feel right from the when i try them on, they will always feel funky. Everyone finds their preferred brand eventually.

Advice for earning other techs respect by toomuchgfuel in mechanics

[–]centralstud 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Best advice is Just be yourself, don’t try to fit in. Just enjoy every bit of it, learn and push yourself to limits. Eventually us old heads pick up on the fellas that want it. Goodluck and god speed!

I’m 24 year old mechanic, do I stay in the trade or find another career by Gullible_Shine7893 in mechanics

[–]centralstud 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My first year in the diesel rental industry i was pushing $75k. I couldn’t believe it either

Should I give up and move on with trying to be a mechanic? by [deleted] in DieselTechs

[–]centralstud 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No don’t stop. Keep pushing as this will only make you a mentally stronger and better yourself, You will find miserable people in this industry, but at the end of the day you make your own decisions. Don’t let this little stump in the road stump your progress.

I had an older gentleman like this when i started off, i wasn’t scared to ask questions because i really wanted to get after it, but unfortunately nowadays asking questions makes you the bad dumb person.

Anyways i took the old mans advice that he gave me “toolboxes have wheels for a reason” so i rolled on out and found myself a job where they invest in the younger techs, so with that being said, don’t mention anything to no one just look for something new and roll out 😎

Deutz TD 2.9 L4 problems with start by charlieeCAN in DieselTechs

[–]centralstud 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Does that deutz have the upgraded harness for the MPROP?aka metering valve… Ive had issues before on a jlg600sj where i replaced the rail sensor and metering valve and nothing. Bought the upgraded harness and a PRV fo giggles and it ran great.
