When you are doing the pretrip for the test for all hoses and rubber parts you just say...no abraisions, buldges or cuts properly mounted and secure at both ends and not leaking? And with the mechanical parts...not cracked bent or broken and properly secured?
I watch youtube videos of guys doing pretrip and saying for example power steering pump resovoir hose "not cracked bent or broken and no abrasions buldges or cuts. Is that right to say not cracked bent or broken too?

The more you say and the longer you take the quicker the tester will most likely stop you.... depending on your state. I took mine in GA and they stopped me. I used EVERYTHING when going over all parts. For instance, the water pump, you have to add not leaking, cracked or damaged and it is properly mounted and secured. So the more you use the less they can score against you for missing 1 word.

Saying too much is what i am asking in this thread. When i hear someone talk about a hose and they say "not cracked, bent or broken" it doesn't makes sense. I never heard of a bent hose lol and i really never hear someone say a broken hose. So if i was talking about a hose i would say...no abrasions, bulges or cuts, not leaking and properly secured at both ends. Adding not cracked, bent or broken doesn't make sense but if i have to say that i will obviously.

So they are mainly looking to see if you know the part you are talking about not necessarily the exact words you use explaining the problems to look for?
