Default My Work Experience, experience

Finishing up the ELT program and required to "pass" is a 2 week work experience somewhere.
I chose a GM dealership and started on Tuesday of this week (Monday was a holiday).

Anyways, Ive got to work on a couple Vettes already which makes my day. First was a 91 replaced the ignition module (didnt fix the issue-which I didnt diagnose) and then figured out it was the fuel pump, so replaced that.

Today came in an 03 Anny Vert with a CEL light. Code P0410.
Sec air blah blah.......just had a new battery put in....guess why Yup, old one leaked acid, what a mess. There was two broken vacuum lines under there. Didnt get to finish as I left early.

Also, Turns out they are getting 1 of 2 ZR1's coming to B.C!!!
Theres a Z06 on the lot (08) was checkin it out couple days ago, got a sticker of 89,xxx, checked it again today and was 85,xxx. Couple Coupes and Verts there as well. The coupe is 55,xxx not sure on the trim package though.

Just thought Id share my week, been pretty considering working for free but hey, thats the way she goes!
