This week

This week in class, we adjusted the valves on our ISX. This week things in our team went surprisingly smooth. After looking up the adjustment procedure, we got the hang of things and moved along quite nicely. We got out engine to bar over and set the exhaust valves to .027 and the intake valves to .014.

This is us using the .014 feeler guage to set valve lash on the intake valve 

Work: 
This week at work I was given the wonderful job of figuring out why the right turn signals would not work on a 2012 Chevy Silverado. First I gathered my wiring diagram and then I checked the fuses. The fuses were good, the bulbs were also good... I then managed to get to the lights and noticed a red wire had been spliced into the turn bulb. The wires were connected by what looked to be like some kind of rtv. This truck had been in some kind of accident, and they attempted to put the wires back together. They ran a red jumper wire straight from power to the bulb. I'm not sure what was going through their head when they were trying to fix the wiring issues.
