Application of Core Knowledge
Real Use of Math
Real Use of Science
Necessity to Understand the Written Word
Human Interaction Mechanical

Computer Application
The “Bottom Line” is: It Requires a Skill Set Like None Other
Craftsmanship
Artistic in its Own Way
Written Communication
Problem Solving Electronic
Fuel Pressure & Volume Test

Fuel Injector, Throttle Body, Fuel Rail R & R or Cleaning
Common service
DryWet Compression Test
Good, “base engine” diagnostic test
Cylinder Leakage Test
Pinpoints the loss of compression, but can’t find a valve guide issue
Engine Oil Pressure Test
Low oil pressure often means excessive main or rod bearing clearance
5Gas Emission Testing & Analysis
HC, CO, NOx, CO 2 , O 2
Exhaust Back Pressure Test
Excess back pressure & low engine vacuum are good indicators of a restricted CAT
Firing kV Test or Engine Power Balance
Quick check to find the weak link
That spark to the spark plugs is exactly timed to the nearest 1º of crankshaft rotation
Timing (EST), Vacuum, and RPM Checks
Oscilloscope Test of Ignition System
High firing line = open Low firing line = short
Cooling System Performance Test
Protect your engine’s cooling system down to 34 Fº and up to + 310 Fº
Parasitic Load Voltage Drop (insulated and ground)& Diode Ripple Test
200 milliamp parasitic is the typical maximum
VAT 45 or VAT 40 Battery, Charging & Cranking System Tests
Sell batteries, starters, alternators & wiring right the first time
Full Data & OBD II Monitor Scan or BiDirectional Control of Outputs
First tool for the MIL☼
Everybody knows someone who has had a check engine light on
Quick Scan MIL☼, DTC Check, Data Stream & Monitor Check
Minor Tuneup or Ignition System Maintenance
Still popular, even with direct ignition
Smoke Pro Diagnostic Smoke Test of EVAP System
Leaks smaller than .020” may require a black light too
MODIS Scan, Lab Scope, Data Base, BiDirectional, etc.
Get your $ worth out of your diagnostic equipment
Starter or Solenoid R & R or Overhaul
Often replaced motor, whether it’s needed or not – diagnose it correctly
Alternator R & R or Overhaul
Often replaced generator, whether it’s needed or not – diagnose it correctly
Distributor R & R or Overhaul & Static Timing
Still a few of these in use & fewer people understand them
Steering & Suspension Inspection “Complete”
Complete understanding is needed to give it a complete inspection
Brake Inspection “Complete”
Look for the obvious, but learn to identify the hardtofind concerns
Alignment Check “setup, compensate, generate document”
Alignment checks are becoming more popular as a leadin to an appointment for job
Alignment Adjustment (4 wheel caster, camber, toe)
4 wheel alignment is the norm & adjustments always start at the rear of the vehicle

Whether you are replacing 4 tires or repairing one tire, this is a need to know!
Tire Balancing & TPMS Reset
Excellent routine task that continues to evolve
Drum Brake Shoe Remove & Replace Mockup

Disc Brake Pad Remove & Replace Mockup
Probably the most often performed brake service
Wheel Bearing Repacking & Seal Replacement
Pertains to nondrive bearings on cars as well as on trailers
Precision measuring with cool tools to the nearest .001” and to the nearest .01mm
Engine Precision Measuring
Wiring Repair (release, cut, strip, solder, heat shrink)
Many wiring repairs done each day & not all are done correctly
Know how the chase goes so you’ll make $ and be happy
