spqt 13 wrs colt

This week i learned that relays have miles of wire in them. I also learned that alternators use a south and north pole winding and by increasing the voltage too the poles more power is produced through the wire on the other sides of the alternator. A diode keep  the south or north pole from going back to the battery. 29 hours school 59 hour internship.

this is a motor from a man lift at my work. im rebuilding it. This motor only powers a pump for hydrolics. all the functions on this man lift at hyd controlled lift,steering,drive train. 

I have a feeling the exhaust valves arnt seating because they have slite burres in them. My instructor also gave me the idea to test the mechanical fuel system on this motor by turning the motor over with a drill and putting the fuel lines in diesel. 

This week at school i learned to find shorts to power. A trick i will use for the rest of my life. lets just say its a real bright idea.15 hour school 35 hours internship

Thermo king

•  at wrs i got to get my hands on a apu unit for a over the road truck. the brand was a thermo king basically a 3 cylinder motor. the motor had a ac unit on it. something i thought was vary interesting was the heater was a seprit motor in it self. i think it worked a lot like carisen heaters work. 

I'm in a bigger shop now.

SAFETY FIRST

 

 

This week my shop crew and i have been moving our stuff from our smaller shop to a much bigger shop. Western refinery service used to make coverall buildings so they built one for real cheap. This new shop has a hydraulic room,two cranes each being two tons,welding/fabricating area. I think its a great shop. There are some bugs too get worked out " the oil lube pumps are a 1 to 9 ratio if you do the math 120 psi multiplies up quick. The 200 psi rated hoses are bursting from time too time. lots of fun cleaning 15w30!

got too work one day and my tool box got a lift kit

           Tis this is a picture of a Sculley plug The grounds will play mind tricks on you. There was a plug i did a while back that i replaced, and put a new ground wire too. our tester still read BAD ground. It turned out too be the Sculley plug mount was not grounded. this happened because thies systems use two different sourses of ground. DONT WANT A SPARK AROUND 4000 gallons of fuel!!!
