Sometimes you have to make yourself chuckle. A broken exhaust heat shield from a Nissan can make a fun mask to cheer up the Monday blues.

Follow along on my week as a journeyperson automotive technician.


A good client has been calling for days describing their problem where a number of electric circuits won't work until the car is warm. Every morning they have to heat up the fuse panel with a hair dryer before the taillights, power windows, rear defrost and other things will function. It turns out the fuse panel is a module(computer) that has failed. I attempted to disassemble it, but I would have to break a part of it, so the customer just had me put it back together as is with no repair done.

Any guesses what this part is? It's for a Toyota car.

I've set my young apprentice loose on this Impreza WRX. He's replacing the head gaskets and taking care of a few other issues. 20171123_212633.jpg

The engine has to be removed from the car to service it. Doesn't that boxer 4 cylinder look goofy!

How about some printed materials.

Remember when ordering Volvo parts to ask for the genuine thing.

I'm not sure if I was taken for a dollar or not, but I helped a man out by buying this.

Now we're talking winter tires! Check out these babies. Wowza! They're a tale for another time though.

Thanks champ. Have a fun day.

Gotta love those snow tires! Might make a bit of a mess of asphalt though... A bit of silliness always helps drive away the Monday blues.

These are strictly ice only. Anything else will destroy the tires.
Thanks for popping in ceci.

For crossing frozen lakes?

More like nascar on ice😈

Cool. Have any photos?

I'll do a feature in the future sometime. Hold onto your seat.

Sounds like a blast. I can't wait.

Oh man, you gotta get that flux capacitor back in that Toyota, before the fusion coupler fails.
Those home made studs are pretty bad ass too.

Nope, guess again.

Love the mark LOL

And those are some serious snow tires

If you wanna go fast you need to think outside the box!
