I know you figure out more of that stuff on your own than you learn in school. At least I know i do. BTW I have a laptop and 3 different kinds of scanners on top of my toolbox. At my current job I am working on everything from riceburning cars to horsetrailers and tractors. Boy does it get confusing sometimes but I work by myself and it all gets figured out and fixed right the first time. Speaking of drive by wire did you know the 99 and up camaro and a few other chevys and a couple of fords have no throttle cables? it's all wires. There is one gm car that doesn't even have a steering colum. When I was working at a gm dealer I had to sit and watch all the training videos and at the last gm dealer I worked at I had to go to a lot of day and 2 day classes to keep current. I hold a gm master certification. But I don't count all of those little classes as going to school. That in my mind is just part of the job and any good company like major dealers will do it. The Volvo tractor dealer and IH dealer I worked at sent me to schools too. Right now I kinda wish I had gone to one on Polaris motorcycles. My boss brought his to me to fix and boy is it trashed. I have to rebuild the car and the motor. The oil doesn't work too well when it is 2 cycle mix oil. That's what he put in it. I got it figured out on my own though and it will be running monday. A carb and a motor is still just a carb and a motor no matter what the name. Some just have more junk on them than others. At least I am finaly in a salaried position where I get paid really good and make my own hours more or less. Sure beats flat rate!

Upgrading an Oliver Super 55 Electrical System - by Dennis Hawkins. My old Oliver Super 55 has been just sitting and rusting for several years now. I really hate to see a good tractor being treated that way, but not being able to start it without a 30 minute point filing ritual every time contributed to its demise. If it would just start when I turn the key, then I would use it more often. In addition to a bad case of old age, most of the tractor's original electrical system was simply too unreliable to keep. The main focus of this page is to show how I upgr
