Chapter 4 See it and fix it

The carburetor is actually a mechanical device with a relatively low failure rate, but this is not the case in China.

In foreign countries, car carburetors are not easy to be damaged, because foreign oil products are of good quality, and Chinese gasoline quality is not good. It has long been no secret.

The quality of gasoline in the 1980s was worse than that of later generations, whether it was 66 or 70 gasoline, the quality was unbelievable.

The poor quality of gasoline has made the originally durable carburetor a vulnerable part, and replacing the carburetor has become the norm in auto repair.

It is worth mentioning that at that time, domestic trucks all used gasoline engines, and trucks equipped with diesel engines did not gradually appear until the 1990s.

For an engine using a carburetor, the carburetor is equivalent to the heart of the engine, and all the working characteristics of the engine are related to the carburetor.

Therefore, when judging the performance failure of the car, the failure of other mechanical parts is often confused with the carburetor, and it is misjudged as the failure of the carburetor, so the carburetor is replaced.

For example, in this old Jiefang, the root cause of the failure was the failure of the gasoline filter due to the blockage of the pipeline, and the generated impurities blocked the carburetor.

If you just replace the carburetor, the failure of the car to start is temporarily eliminated, but the root cause is not solved. The pipeline is still blocked, and the gasoline filter cannot work completely, so once the big foot steps on the accelerator, the car will will turn off.

For a professional auto mechanic, this is a layer of window paper, which can be broken with a single stab. When Zhao Hu saw the blocked pipe, he knew where he was wrong.

I checked the gasoline filter at the time, why didn't I check this pipe! Zhao Hu looked annoyed.

Cui Dashan, the workshop director, looked at Li Weidong with a curious look on his face. He couldn't understand why Li Weidong, who wandered around the workshop every day and did nothing at all, could see at a glance that this old Jiefang was broken down. root cause.

Li Weidong, how did you know it was the filter? Cui Dashan asked.

I've never eaten pork, and I haven't seen a pig run. I squat here every day to watch so many masters repair cars, and I can see a little bit. Li Weidong replied with a smile.

You can learn to repair a car after just a few days? I believe in you! Cui Dashan cursed inwardly.

Future auto mechanics are systematically trained in technical schools. In the 1980s, it was not easy to train a car mechanic. At that time, there was no technical school specializing in auto repair. Learning auto repair was entirely dependent on the hands of the master.

The master leads the apprentice, unlike the auto repair school, there is no special teaching material and systematic curriculum. At the same time, the master also has the work of repairing the car himself. It is impossible to focus on teaching the disciples, so the teaching efficiency and quality cannot be talked about. In this case, it would take a master several years to bring out a qualified apprentice.

Li Weidong said that he could learn to repair a car by looking at it himself, but Cui Dashan certainly wouldn't believe it.

But Cui Dashan thought about it again, Li Weidong has been wandering around every day since he arrived at the auto repair workshop, which was seen by Cui Dashan, and Li Weidong did not learn to repair cars with any master.

Where did this kid learn to repair cars? Could it be that his blind cat met a dead mouse? Cui Dashan thought to himself.

As a car mechanic, Zhao Hu was slapped in the face by the bastards in the workshop, even if the car was not repaired. Naturally, he lowered his head in humiliation, but he was helpless.

...

In terms of car repair skills, Li Weidong is indeed not inferior to those experienced masters.

In his previous life, Li Weidong worked in the auto repair workshop for three years, and went through the journey from apprentice to auto mechanic. Later, Li Weidong was transferred to the post of vehicle dispatching and witnessed the last glorious moment of the state-owned transportation enterprise.

But with the rise of private transport,

The state-owned transportation enterprises had difficulty adapting to the fierce market competition, and eventually went down the road of decline. Qinghe Transportation Company, a large state-owned enterprise, could only live by guarding the passenger bus station, and Li Weidong, who was in charge of freight transportation at that time, was also laid off.

When Li Weidong was laid off, in the early 1990s, the RB trainee system was rising. Li Weidong took advantage of his youth and strength and found some connections to work in RB. The Japanese intermediary learned that Li Weidong could repair cars, so he recommended him to an RB auto repair shop.

For the owner of the auto repair shop, spending the salary of the trainee and hiring an auto mechanic is simply a double profit, rounding up and earning another 100 million.

In the early 1990s, RB's auto industry began to surpass the United States and Germany, and Li Weidong also came into contact with the world's most advanced auto repair technology.

Compared with the RB car, the mechanical structure of the old Jiefang is indeed too simple. The engine of the RB in the 1980s, China still cannot learn it in the 21st century. Li Weidong repaired the complicated RB car for several years, and then he went to repair the old liberation.

Li Weidong was a trainee at RB for three years and earned 200,000 yuan. It was also thanks to the crazy appreciation of the yen at that time that Li Weidong could make so much money.

The 200,000 RMB in the early 1990s was really a huge sum of money. After Li Weidong returned to China, he used the money as start-up capital to start a business and eventually became a well-known billionaire.

...

When the bell rang for get off work, Li Weidong immediately rushed out of the auto repair workshop, followed his past memories, and ran towards the family yard of the transportation company.

Cui Dashan looked at Li Weidong, who was No. 1 after get off work, and shook his head helplessly.

I thought this kid was going to change sex, but I didn't expect it to be that second-rate. He was the first to run after get off work. Huh? Why did this kid go straight to the gate? The bicycle shed is in the south.

At this time, Li Weidong had already run far away, and when he turned a corner, he disappeared.

Li Weidong trot all the way, UU reading www. uukanshu. com returned to the family home of the transportation company. At the entrance of the family home, several old men were playing chess around the small table. A familiar figure came into Li Weidong's eyes.

That was Li Weidong's father, Li Dengke.

In later generations, by the time Li Weidong created a career, his parents had already passed away, and Li Weidong also felt the pain of not waiting for a parent to be raised. Now seeing his father alive in front of him again, Li Weidong couldn't help shedding tears.

Li Weidong walked over quietly, looked at his father who was fighting fiercely with his opponent on the chess table, and finally couldn't help shouting: Dad!

Li Dengke turned his head and saw his son standing behind him with tears in his eyes.

Weidong, what's the matter? Why are you crying? Li Dengke was stunned for a moment, realizing that Li Weidong was just standing there alone, and he immediately understood.

Is the car stolen? Li Dengke asked.

Car? We still have a car at home? Li Weidong was stunned for a moment, and then he remembered that he really had a car at home, a two-eighth-bar bicycle that he bought in 1979.

The two-eighth bar turned out to be the one that Li Dengke rode to work. After Li Dengke retired, the car was given to Li Weidong to let him ride to and from get off work.

Li Weidong burst into tears when he saw his father again, but Li Dengke thought that Li Weidong had lost his bicycle, so he burst into tears.

In the early 1980s, the 28 bars was equivalent to the current private car. If the young man at that time had a 28 bars, going on a blind date was a bonus item. Losing a twenty-eighth bar is definitely a big financial loss for a family, and the rounded loss is 100 million.

How could I forget the car, my 28-bar is still parked in the garage of the repair shop!
