ecmn | Mistake happen even to the best.
If I'm doing an engine or transmission I literally torque every single bolt to spec. There is no hand tighten. I usually put a paint Mark on each bolt after torque.
And when putting the tractor back together you try to make sure you zip tie everything up right. And just do everything to make it look like you were never there. And somehow once in awhile you miss something.
99% of the time I catch anything before it leaves the shop but sometimes A little leak or something will appear after the customers put some hours on it.
I am probably the slowest mechanic on any social media thing. In the Facebook groups are on YouTube or in this forum, people always brag how they can have a tractor split in a couple hours. By lunch time. They're already putting the engine back together.
I have zero problems saying that sometimes I will spend 2 hours with a couple dial indicators setting a differential in the transmission. It's just how it goes sometimes. But you are trying so hard to make every single step and process perfect | |

Dealers need to charge more for their labor?
