well I tried to fill out some of the holes in this thing in this business website but they only want to put words in my mouth they won't give me a blank slate they won't let me say what I'm just say I'm undefinable I don't like being told what I had to say so most of it didn't get filled out@... oh by the way I think you may have seen the pictures so guess what's back I got my second truck in I just need to get it mobile and license and license plate tags and insurance I'm guessing the gas tank is empty I've got the whole list of my head it goes on forever radiator distributor cap wires transmission needs to be put back in alternator is missing I put four of them starter needs to go in and the back seat got to clean it up for one it'll never be cleaned up after that . oh and then I need to load it down with a bunch of tools and get to work... the things that tank I've gone through 10 motors and nine transmissions over its life it's only because I overloaded do it

well in a mobile situation as in my RV and house are mobile I don't have a place to live or base out of I am evolving this isn't quite the business it was,... I was offered oh I could take you to your jobs until they realize what I do for a living and they can't do it. and yeah I loaded up a bag of tools and finish my job like I promised and I can do that again although it's hard to load up a bag of tools and know what you're walking into and not forget something so I started off with a simple job of I can't get my car to the shifter let your shift so annoyed you blew your fuse couldn't get the guy to find it all I needed was a test light so I packed up my electrical bag he mentions a check engine light so I packed up my code machine and a few miscellaneous light tools in a small handbag on my way to that job two more calls came in for a job I was not even prepared for because I threw them all into a bag so to moving alternator no problem but I didn't have a wrench big enough to handle taking out an oil sender unit I've got plenty at home but I'm not going to be able to remember to take them with me so for instance like that it's going to be difficult to plan ahead throw it into a bag and carry it the back of my truck had everything I needed,... my Jack weighs a ton just that is essential for a great job brake jobs are the easiest thing in the world now it's impossible. so until I figure out a few logistics I'm going to have to take on jobs on a case-by-case basis and try to figure out how to get them done no I can still get anything done. simultaneously I'm rebuilding my RV the roof leaks everything is wet I'm no Carpenter and I've seen over six customers with RVs gutted that never made it back together I swore that wouldn't be me but as an a**l OCD mechanic I will do this precisely. I've got big plans for this place they're not going to evict me out of an RV landlords can't evict you out of an RV if you own the fu**er.... I can smoke in it if I want.

my retirement. I have no means to save my tools my truck my future My Hope 30 years of service down the tubes.... to fix it stepping at b&r quoted $225 by Friday to cover the tow truck and the City of Corvallis wants $100 fine insurance proof of ownership, even still I was stranded on the side of the road because I was jammed in fourth gear which means I would need a tow dolly too. overall a pretty much no win scenario,

sending a Panera everything came to a head this night when my truck got towed and my future and my tools and there's absolutely no way I can fix anybody's car make any money or ever recover this I was quoted $225 by Friday from the junkyard they knew me I was quoted $100 fine from the city and insured driver and proof of the fact that I own it and I need a way of getting it out of there which is a dolly or it's all gone. I personally am ready to retire I'm tired of fighting I'm tired of trying I'm just worn out 30 years of service hard work dedication and sacrifice for this and this is how it goes out am I done I can still fight a million times over but apparently somebody is showing me the exit Corvallis wants me gone

Cranks no start…1996 Toyota Camry, customer blames fuel pump, so testing city ways from Sunday, definitely prooved it wasn’t so replaced and, crank no start, um yer not getting spark, checked coil, couldn’t proove, take the distributor cap off… looks good, so I have him crank it, rotor doesn’t turn, cam doesn’t turn, obvious now the timing belt was broken, crank sensor on the crank ran the pump, but no spark gave me the true answer.

No crank, described as a good battery, and a click…obviously the solenoid. No let no door, no battery, just jumped under it and found…. Freeze Off the nut removed nut wire, tighten the post… and p**f, problem solved.

customer calls complaining of transmission shift issues. (im jus doin this off the top of my head i don't have spacifics of year make model, his name etc).... i examine the car, it's got multiple issues, check engine light. i pull codes....P0605 PCM ROM memory fault error. powertrain control module fault (the tr**ny computer) i google cost of that and $80 out of a junkyard. also second code... P0335 crank sensor (crank sensor turns on the fuel pump). i then test drive it automatic with an on demand shift system, it wont shift at all, manually shifts up ibto 5th gear but won't downshift. at stop wont go back into first. rpm and idle are all in the wrong place..... so i come back, clear the code, disconnect and reconnect the bttery and ECM. idles even worse.... also noticed the RPM gauge doesn't work. call up AZ autozone an get a crank sensor for $80. get it in. start it up, imediate difference. idle is right, rpm works. test drive it and every shift point is where it needs to be.... transmission 101 :m before dealing with a transmission issue, you must first have a decent running engine. the engine had no rpm input and the entire shindig was fubard. no trans comp needed. problem solved... total time less than 2 hours. total cost $80 for the sensor 2 hrs time $120. saved way more than that from anywhere else.
