This is the tractor I am using to flaten my yard and dig a ditch for my electric.

I helped attach the back end digger it has its own hydralic system. This is the damned pin took quite a while of struggling to get in. I had to use a four by four and a brick..... But you gotta use what you got right?

I found two leaks this is one of them.

Here is the pump on the backend attachment.

Here is the rest of the system.

I went through and checked all the fluids

Here is leak number two under the hood.

Wow the oil is black.

This is one of the before pictures.

Here is the other tractor I have been using to pull everything out of the bushes. I love this thing look at all the sweet attachments.

Fq 2013

So I successfully found the key off parasitic drain on the peterbilt... I have to say I found quit a bit of difficulty when I tried to use the same tactics I used on the international. I found it by checking the load on the fuses. Then used my meter to check the outlet (where the fuse box lead me). The outlet had no power so I pulled covers off and found a damned resistor behind the ash tray.       Hours this week:15.                                 Hours total:40

FQ 2013

This week was my first week back in class. It was intimidating at first because summer had taken its toll on my memory but for the first day we did a great exercise and brushed up on all the things the class I felt fuzzy about; connecting to the vehicles computer and deciphering codes, finding a short to ground, short, open and properly testing a battery. I have already tackled the key off parasitic drain problem on the shop's international. I am pretty comfortable with the amp clamp now and I doubt I will have too much problems (knock on wood (excluding extenuating circumstance)) finding the root of a parasitic drain. I also learned how to crimp connections on both large and small wires.

Hours this week and total: 25
