Chapter 4 Look at it and fix it
The carburetor is actually a mechanism with a relatively low failure rate, but this is not the case in China.
In foreign countries, it is not a secret that car carburetors are not easy to be damaged because foreign oil products are of good quality, while Chinese gasoline is of poor quality.
The quality of gasoline in the eighties was even worse than in later generations, whether it was 66 or 70, the quality was not flattering.
The poor quality of gasoline has made the carburetor a wear part, and replacing the carburetor has become the norm for car repairs.
It is worth mentioning that at that time, domestic trucks used gasoline engines, and trucks with diesel engines did not gradually appear until the nineties.
For engines that use carburetors, 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 automobiles, the failure of other mechanical parts is often confused with the carburetor, and the carburetor is misjudged as the carburetor failure, so that the carburetor is replaced.
For example, the root cause of the failure of this old Jiefang is that the gasoline filter is blocked by a blocked pipeline, and the impurities generated clog the carburetor.
If you only replace the carburetor, although the fault of the car not starting is temporarily eliminated, it does not solve the root cause, the pipeline is still blocked, and the gasoline filter cannot fully work, so once you step on the accelerator, the car will stall.
For a professional car mechanic, this is a layer of window paper, which can be broken with a slight stab, and when Zhao Hu saw the clogged pipe, he knew where he was wrong.
"I checked the gasoline filter at the time, why didn't I check this pipe!" Zhao Hu had a frustrated expression.
Cui Dashan, the director of the workshop, looked at Li Weidong with a curious face, he couldn't understand how Li Weidong, who wandered around the workshop every day and didn't do any work, could see at a glance the root cause of the failure of this old liberation.
"Li Weidong, how do you know it's a filter problem?" asked Cui Dashan.
"I've never eaten pork, haven't I seen a pig run, I squat here every day to watch so many masters repair cars, and I have seen some of them. Li Weidong replied with a smile.
"You can learn to repair a car after watching it in a few days?" I believe you are a ghost!" Cui Dashan cursed in his heart.
The auto mechanics of the future are systematically trained in technical schools. And in the eighties, it was not easy to train a car mechanic. At that time, there was no technical school specializing in teaching auto repair, and learning auto repair depended on the master's hand-held belt.
Unlike auto repair schools, there are no special teaching materials and systematic courses. At the same time, the master himself also has a job of repairing cars, and it is impossible to put all his mind on the disciples, so there is no talk of teaching efficiency and quality. In this case, it will take a few years for the master to bring out a qualified apprentice.
Li Weidong said that he could learn to repair a car by looking at it, but of course Cui Dashan would not believe it.
But Cui Dashan thought about it, since Li Weidong arrived at the auto repair workshop, he has been wandering around every day, all of which are in Cui Dashan's eyes, and Li Weidong has not learned to repair cars from any master.
"Where did this kid learn to repair cars? Could it be that he was really touched by his blind cat and killed a mouse?" Cui Dashan said secretly in his heart.
Zhao Hu, as a car repair master, didn't say that the car was not repaired, but was slapped in the face by the bastards in the workshop, naturally he lowered his head in humiliation, but he was helpless, who made him inferior to others!
......
In terms of car repair technology, 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 also experienced the process from apprentice to auto mechanic, and then Li Weidong was transferred to the post of vehicle dispatching, and witnessed the last glorious moment of the state-owned transportation enterprise.
However, with the rise of private transportation, state-owned transport enterprises could not adapt to the fierce market competition, and eventually inevitably embarked on the road of decline.
When Li Weidong was laid off, it was in the early 90s, the RB trainee system was emerging, and Li Weidong took advantage of his youth and strength to find some connections to work at RB. The Japanese intermediary learned that Li Weidong could repair cars, so they recommended him to an RB auto repair shop.
For the owner of the auto repair shop, spending the salary of a trainee and hiring an auto repair technician is simply a double earning, and he makes another 100 million by rounding it up.
In the early 90s, RB's automotive industry began to surpass the United States and Germany, and Li Weidong was exposed to the world's most advanced auto repair technology.
Compared with the RB car, the mechanical structure of the old liberation is indeed too simple, and the engine of the RB in the 80s is still not learned in China in the 21st century. Li Weidong repaired the complex RB car for several years, and then went to repair the old and liberated, so he naturally came to the rescue.
Li Weidong was a trainee at RB for three years and earned 200,000 yuan, which was also thanks to the crazy appreciation of the yen at that time, Li Weidong was able to earn so much money.
The 200,000 yuan in the early nineties was really a huge amount of money, and after Li Weidong returned to China, he used this money as start-up capital to start a business, and eventually became a well-known billionaire.
......
When the bell rang for getting off work, Li Weidong immediately rushed out of the auto repair workshop, followed the memories of the past, and ran towards the family courtyard of the transportation company.
Cui Dashan looked at Li Weidong, who was "what to do, the first place after work", and shook his head helplessly.
"I thought this kid was going to change sex, but I didn't expect it to be the second-rate habit, and he was the first to run away after work. Hey, why did this kid go straight to the gate, the bike shed was on the south side. ”
At this time, Li Weidong had already run away, turned a corner and disappeared.
Li Weidong trotted all the way back to the family courtyard of the transportation company, at the gate of the family courtyard, several old men were playing chess around the small table, and a familiar figure came into Li Weidong's eyes.
It 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 experienced the pain of wanting to raise his son but not waiting for his relatives. Now seeing his father standing in front of him alive again, Li Weidong couldn't help but shed tears.
Li Weidong quietly walked over, looked at his father who was fighting fiercely with his opponent on the chess table, and finally couldn't help shouting: "Dad!"
Li Dengko turned his head and saw his son standing behind him, his eyes still tee-eyed.
"Weidong, what's wrong? Why are you crying?" Li Dengke was slightly stunned, and realized that Li Weidong was just standing there alone, and suddenly understood.
"Did someone steal the car?" asked Li Dengko.
Li Weidong was slightly stunned, and then remembered that there was really a car at home, which was a "28 bar" bicycle bought in 79 years.
The "28 big bar" was originally ridden to work by Li Dengke, and after Li Dengke retired, the car was given to Li Weidong and asked him to ride to and from work.
When Li Weidong saw his father again, he burst into tears with excitement, but Li Dengke thought that Li Weidong had lost his bicycle, so he cried urgently.
In the early eighties, the "28 bars" were equivalent to today's private cars, and if the young men at that time had a "28 bar", it was a plus to go on a blind date. Losing a "28 bar" is definitely a big thing for a family, and it will be rounded up to lose 100 million.
"Why did I forget the car, my 28 bar is still parked in the carport of the repair workshop!"
