Absolutely. If the man is paying me, you bet I'm honoring my work. 80 is a very fair price around my area. Shops are 90-110 range and the dealers...
40 ab hour on side jobs?! No way, way too cheap. Dealer around here 120 plus. I'm coming to him, bringing my tools and truck. I want to make money...
Thanks
Doing a side job this weekend. 96 CH Mack with E7 engine. I've done plenty of them but I work hourly at my main job so I have no idea what the...

If your out on the road and can't pick up a new one try giving the old motor a few taps with a light rubber banner or a flashlight or something

Never heard of such restriction. Why would someone have one?
That's what I figured. Just curious because you know how some DOT cops do t exactly know what they're doing
Lol the other day I was heading back from a service call. Dump truck ahead of me had one short mudflap, one missing and no brake lights. When I...
If I have a class B CDL could I still drive a tractor on the road without a trailer hooked to it? I'm a mechanic at a garbage company that only...
Injectors, cups, oil pressure sensors wicking oil into engine harness are the big things I've seen as a mechanic. Early on also had camshaft issueS
