Car Mechanic

what is the process of becoming a car mechanic in state of new york?
Can i qualify as a mechanic without any mechanic school degree but by knowing basics of a car and ability to fix it?
First of all you need to decide what cars you want to work on? Than you need to find out from those manufactures, what type of programs they have, whether throe the dealerships or if you need to go to a tech school.
Then consider, why stay with cars. Crane mechanics for example make great monies over their lifetime and have the chance of traveling as well!

Warranties apply against manufacturer defects. Bone Product Description The Bone is our first and most popular creeper model, an American made product to ease the woes of mechanics worldwide. Originally called the Captain Creeper when it was invented in 1974, its unique shape led it to be renamed as The Bone™ when it went on sale to the public in 1996. Since then it has become a standard for quality in the creeper industry, and is widely asked for by name. Most importantly, however, is the fact that all of our creepers are American made, in a world where so many formerly American products have had their production moved overseas. The Bone features a uniquely shaped body which cradles the user between the wheels only an inch or so above the ground. The big, easy rolling wheels are positioned outboard to provide a strong, stable working platform that can’t tip or flip the user. The rib-reinforced body is molded of a state-of-the-art, engineering grade co-polymer that resists the effects of common solvents, so cleaning is quick and easy at the end of the job. The smooth, comfortable one-piece design has no cracks, corners or other pinch points, and the outboard wheel pods prevent tipping and flipping. The Bone™ body is a patented design which allows the use of large diameter wheels with specially formulated tires that roll easily over all sorts of obstacles, including rough floors, drop cords and air lines, loose parts and even tools and floor grates. The wheels are fastened to the creeper body with four 5/16-inch diameter. thru-bolts so they can’t pull tear out or break off in any common use situation. One of the most important features of the Bone is its wheels. Ordinary creeper wheels are a conventional creeper’s weakest point. They’re too small, so they get hung up or stopped by even the tiniest obstacles, and they have a real knack for tearing out or breaking off at the worst moment. To add insult to injury, the replacement wheels can cost almost as much as a new creeper. The Bone has custom-molded, 5-1/8-inch diameter wheels with oil-impregnated center bearings and specially formulated, molded-in-place 1-inch wide tires that roll even easier and last even longer than the previous design. The heavy American made cad-plated steel caster frames have dual race ball bearing swivels and are thru-bolted to the creeper body. In addition, the winged design adds form to function. Best of all, the wheels are guaranteed for the life of the creeper (against manufacturer defects)! The Bone is not strictly limited to the automotive market. Recently, the Industrial market has picked it up for use on machine maintenance, and they can even be found at amusement parks for inspecting roller coasters! The Bone is 47-inch long, 25-1/2-inch wide, has about 1-3/4-inch ground clearance and weighs 18 lbs. The wheels have a limited warranty for the life of the creeper (against manufacturer defects), and the body carries a limited one-year warranty. Features

![]() Black & Decker AD925 Smart Scan Automotive Check Engine Light Diagnostic Tool List Price: Sale Price: $63.00 You save: $16.99 (21%) Eligible for free shipping!Availability: Usually ships in 24 hours See Reviews For This Product DescriptionWhen your "Check Engine" light comes on, the Black & Decker AD950 self-diagnostic tool displays the same information stored in a car’s computer that a mechanic uses to diagnose and fix problems. When the "Check Engine" light comes on, for cars manufactured after 1995, insert the SmartScan in the OBDII port near the steering wheel column. The easy-to-read LED screen displays the fault code – the same information a mechanic will see – for why the "Check Engine" light illuminated. The SmartScan is sold with a reference manual of the fault codes which easily stores in the glove compartment. Urgency Indicators also display how serious the problem is. Arrow pointing to green bar indicates the car’s computer is not reporting a problem, and the Smart Scan has the ability to turn off the “Check Engine” light. Arrow pointing to yellow bar indicates the car should be looked at in the next five days. Arrow pointing to amber bar indicates a mechanic should see the car soon before further damage can occur. Arrow pointing to red bar indicates an immediate repair is needed. Catch minor problems before they become big – and expensive. Visit a mechanic armed with knowledge about what is wrong, including which parts might be affected, and don’t be charged for unnecessary repairs.

Once connected, the Smart Scan A925's Urgency Indicator will instantly alert you to the severity of the problem and tell you if it's safe to continue driving. An arrow pointing the green bar indicates no problem, while an arrow pointing to the yellow bar indicates that the vehicle should be examined in the next 5 days. When the arrow points to the amber bar, a mechanic should check the vehicle before further damage occurs. If the arrow points to the red bar, an immediate repair is needed. The Smart Scan AD925 also provides you with the diagnostic codes that are causing the Check Engine Light to come on. These are the same codes that a mechanic uses to diagnose and repair your car. The Smart Scan AD925 stores these codes in its memory, and can be attached to your computer through a USB connection for in-depth research on Black & Decker's Check Engine Light Help Center.
