hmm
interesting concept
I never really given any thought to engines except for maintaining cars.
that's fair, I kinda want to be able to do my own work on my own truck but the electronics are a bit overwhelming for me, mostly because the wireing is a rats nest in most everything.
oh yeah
especially when it comes to building a PC
the wiring gets everywhere
even though I would still take it to a shop most of the time, it's nice to know how it is built and wired so I can take a good guess at what is wrong.
at least in a PC everything is more or less standardized.
mmm
I guess so
When you're picking parts you have to make sure that the CPU and PSU and Motherboard
can handle it
but yah, take that and scale it up to about 10 or 20 feet, now make it so the case covers most of the wires and needs heavy equipment to move.
hell yeah
can i post youtube links here?
I don't know, check <#463041536003932170>
that's what a truck is like.
what's worse is the one I have is a bit of a hodgepodge.
oof
You can post links in here, but they won't embed (precaution for new folks in case folks come in to spam unsavoury images to get the server taken down)
from what i know, the brand of truck no longer services the brand of engine, then I know the fuse box got replaced at least once, and the gauge panel.
the good news is the brand of engine is one of the most common so most shops can service it just fine.
This channel acts as a general until your immigration applications have been processed 🙂
as it naturally does
lots of fun! but at least the big trucks are not really proprietary for the most part.
yeah
All I know is how to work on a 2000 Chevy Malibu
I replaced nearly everything in her
Good evening folks
Evening
I kinda knew i would be getting into a bit of crazy land when i bought a truck old enough to be exempt form most of the modern emissions standards.
makeing it much cheaper to work on and more reliable besides.
yeah
I should note the truck I drive for work is not the truck I own, not right now at least.
I heard about something about modern designs not being reliable like their older cousins
I just assume its companies being lazy
its mostly the emissions equipment, far more complex then it should be and was forced into use before it was ready for market.
lots of sensors and crap.
ah
the governments fault
THANKS OBAMA
if I had the money I would try experimenting with an after burner to reduce emissions.
