Day In The Life Of A Heavy Diesel Mechanic

Come join me throughout my day

Unfortunately I was not able to film the first part of the day but did manage to get a little bit of footage

Waking up in time to cook is amazing! I roll out of bed at 5:30 drink as much coffee and tea as a man can handle then show up to work at 5:59 ready to break shit spectacularly

Nice Video!! I am starting Trade School in May for Diesel and Heavy Equipment Repair, and starting work at an underground hard-rock mine.

Before committing to school check to see if companies offer you school themselves. That’s how I became a diesel tech but you might have to start at a low level lube tech. All worth it imo.

The way you were making tea is me any time cooking "Oh my" like 3 times

I'm relieved to hear his "shit don't rust"! LOL

Thx for sharing. Interesting. Different perspective. I enjoyed. Watching from Ontario Canada 🎉

Real nice dude thanks for the video! I just started as a tire tech and working my way to a mechanic.

I want to get into this field. I notice a lot of schools offer diesel technology or heavy equipment. So hard to make a decision.

Very nice, i love this video, that chicken looks yummy, and you have a nice job congratulations 👏👏👏

Nice organized tool chest!
I’ve watched many tool organization videos and have never seen two magnet bars used for combo wrenches! Great idea! Where did you get those?

[tyronesmith]

Why do you have an apartment? Every dieser mechanic I know owns a 4 bedroom house to himself

This comment section is great

Good advice from people in the field and funny things said by people like “break shit spectacularly” had me crying laughing.

Start the hose wrap in the middle and work your way out one side at a time

[pushvedula]

Yeah, I’m hoping to do auto and diesel tech if that’s possible!!

[davidbaldanza]

You should get hose crimper pliers instead of using vise grips the vise grips with damage the lines

[gunlover]

I hope that brass fitting had inserts for the plastic line it will come off when it gets hot in the summer if it didn't, all plastic air line fittings have them inserts that go inside the tubing to keep the air line round and secure !

[dancearoundtheworld]

i might be doin this as my life for years, just seeing what tools ill need to fill my rolling box with

[joshb]

Very insightful vid, are most diesel techs paid hourly if you don’t mind sharing? I’m currently in automotive at a Honda dealership, and am curious about possibly diesel later on…

[johnplatten]

The air hurts when still has remove the air line out the fitting when the system have full pressure in the tanks
