Diesel and Auto Mechanics

Diesel and Auto Mechanics was presented by Jeff Christian, a mechanic at Deter Motor Company. While in the shop, Christian fixes cars and trucks. He does electrical and engine work, using a computer that detects problems with the vehicle. Along with cars and trucks, Christian also works on electric cars, and said, “Electric cars are a breed of their own.”

Christian also conveyed that each job has a different amount of time to finish, but he enjoys the challenge it presents. “I love the challenge for new stuff.” For example, fixing a transmission takes 25 hours to finish, but Christian usually pushes himself to get it done in 18 hours. He said, “Knowledge, to me, is power.”
