Waking up in time to cook is amazing! I roll out of bed at 5:30 drink as much coffee and tea as a man can handle then show up to work at 5:59 ready to break shit spectacularly
@@chinamon7870I’m in the same boat as the other guy but I have been a generator mechanic for a couple yrs before jumping into diesel mech. There’s a lot to learn on the job, learn the systems of every component and everything else comes with experience. Try to work efficiently, The heavy duty stuff is no joke, it’ll take a toll on ur body if u like to man handle ur way through. Also starting off I’d get a common set of tools then later upgrade to power tools that help u work faster and also get special tools that make the job easier. I’m still learning at the moment but I’m around my 7th month in. Still slow but slow is smooth and smooth is fast. Try to keep a clean and organized area. It makes u look more professional and also is less of a headache trying to find bolts that rolled away. And I guess the last thing is to always ask for advice if you are unsure of doing something the right way.
Don’t waste your money, school is good and all but will never teach you what real world experience can teach you. It’s not easy but just go straight into the trade and skip over school
Nice organized tool chest! I’ve watched many tool organization videos and have never seen two magnet bars used for combo wrenches! Great idea! Where did you get those?
Before committing to school check to see if companies offer you school themselves. That’s how I became a diesel tech but you might have to start at a low level lube tech. All worth it imo.
@@nathanmcintyre6389try to get in a dealership as a porter and try to work your way up yes it’ll be a slow tedious process but show them your a hard worker and take it seriously and if that doesn’t work out you’ll have the experience on your resume and it’ll be easier to get into other places the hardest part is just trying to find a way into the industry that’ll actually hire you but once you have that first time experience it’ll be a bit easier getting into places you want
My family basically has a hobby farm with a bunch of heavy machinery and a fleet of yearly 2000’s diesel Volkswagens and I don’t think you don’t have to be a heavy diesel mechanic to work on diesels, for me UA-cam is my best friend.
This comment section is great Good advice from people in the field and funny things said by people like “break shit spectacularly” had me crying laughing.
Did mechanics course for cars with college for 3yrs and wanted to work on cars but this year I got an apprenticeship with FedEx as a HGV mechanic. Lots of heavy lifting but it’s good pay. Hoping to stay with them for a few years then leaving once I feel like I have all the knowledge and parts info so I can do an office job somewhere in the mechanics line. Just because as a diabetic, lifting heavy things whilst managing my health, it’s quite scary and stressful if it’s not in the good range❤
Very insightful vid, are most diesel techs paid hourly if you don’t mind sharing? I’m currently in automotive at a Honda dealership, and am curious about possibly diesel later on…
Depends. I currently work for a school district as a mechanic for the school buses (primarily) and all the other vehicles. It's hourly. I just got accepted for a city job for diesel tech at the waste management center. Hourly too.
Living in Burnaby B.C. Canada. Looking for a job career as heavy equipment operator. I want to ask one question. Does company provide a heavy equipment workers? or should buy or rent it from them?
am i tripping or did you not lock your dead bolt? someoen can very easily get inside of your apartment with just the door lock. schooling is a waste of time. get apprenticeship at a dealer or shop on the other hand, going to school tonget your ASE certification will make sure you know what yoire doing the right way and not unlce billys work-a-round bullshit shortcuts just to make the job get done faster
I hope that brass fitting had inserts for the plastic line it will come off when it gets hot in the summer if it didn't, all plastic air line fittings have them inserts that go inside the tubing to keep the air line round and secure !
@@RLK02 Not sure what he's using. If you're looking it's hard to go wrong, really. Anything above a Hero 6 & you're fine. You honestly dont need a GoPro to shoot 8k & 300fps. Old ones do great. I like the 8
@@OvercomePain thx, I was using the highly reviewed knock off version for awhile but it would record for 30min or less and shut off losing the footage. I got really frustrated with it and gave up trying to do POV UA-cam videos.

That’s the realest shit I’ve read in a comment section In awhile
Why do you have an apartment? Every dieser mechanic I know owns a 4 bedroom house to himself
Dam pocket watcher 😂😂😂
I want to get into this field. I notice a lot of schools offer diesel technology or heavy equipment. So hard to make a decision.
I didn't go to tech or college for diesel mechanic. Was able to get into a dealership that was able to do on the job training.
If you are going to school make sure it's one that will help you get into the field afterwards and not just say okay you graduated bye
@@tylerrobinson6158that’s what I’m about to do you have any advice for me going in

Im planning on doing this too. How did it work out for you?

You should get hose crimper pliers instead of using vise grips the vise grips with damage the lines
I'm relieved to hear his "shit don't rust"! LOL
Must’ve been some good tea😂 your wired asf
Start the hose wrap in the middle and work your way out one side at a time
Did you just say there is a snowmobile trail in the field filled with snow.... 🤔 lol
Thanks For Sharing Your Work Man. What Camara Are you Using

The air hurts when still has remove the air line out the fitting when the system have full pressure in the tanks

Is it worth being a diesel mechanic?
No, but if you’re a real one you do it anyway.
Good vid bro

You talking about the farrel? It would be pissing if he didnt
That’s quite literally the only way those fittings work. I can’t see how you could possibly screw that task up
What are you using to record
hes using a go pro with a headstrap
@@OvercomePain But what kind of GoPro? they are all over the board on reviews so it's hard to pick one and the new ones want a subscription.

Don’t worry about how others choose to speak or act…. Focus on yourself unless asked for your opinion
Maybe watch pbs kids next time

Fuck yes brother you damn right you are. Yes means yes , no means FUCK OFF
