  • @controldatablock6687
    @controldatablock6687 Před 19 dny

    Question for ya: why did you not blow out the intercooler and condenser seeing how dirty the radiator fins where? Is it an in the field command decision that you are there to do the job of just the radiator only as the customer contracted for and ignore whatever else you may see wrong or needs cleaning? That oil cooler didn't look like it did much cooling with the crushed fins. Once you start doing free extras your are not getting paid for it as it takes time but it would stellar and thorough service. How do you balance all that on these jobs? At some point you have to quit the care factor I guess. Good videos thanks.

  • @gearheadautomotivel.l.c.5476

    Hell yeah brother! Another job well done. That crane looks really nice. That's one thing I never had on my service truck that I always wanted. These days I'm working out of a van instead of a truck because I specialize in Diagnostics and module programming. If I ever go back to doing road repairs you can bet it will be in a service truck like yours. Keep up the good work and stay hydrated out there I'm sure it's about as hot in Arizona right now as it is down in Texas.

    I swear I've been thinking about going from my truck driving to being a mobile lube tech for CMV. Just oil changes, greasing chassis, brake adjustment, grease 5th wheel and very light repairs. I worked for Penske for a bit and I own my own truck so there's no fear factor.

    for future reference, ive never had one of those chambers not slightly leak and turn into a big leak at the clamp. the diaphragms are usually the cheapest and thinnest you could use, i tried like mad to re set one that i knew i had recently put on and the only way to stop the leak was a quality diaphragm.

    Hey man thank you for all your videos I re watch them all and I feel like I’m learning something every every time I work on my own truck and tractor because I’ve been ripped off by so many shops here in the Bay Area!!! If you ever want to change to let someone come on a ride alone with you for a day or 2 and kinda show me the way and get some help I would go there and maybe do it a few times seriously think about that I would love to come and learn and pay my way no free rides here thank you !
