LEE & RAY ELECTRIC 1005 N. Front (S. Rte. 31) McHenry 385-0882 Learning ABC's Of Car Repair Dick Hranac, right, coordinator for McHenry County college auto programs, oversees a student's work in a small engine class. Summer auto classes will be offered for the first time in MCC's history. - - Students in McHenry County college's automotive technology program fix cars very slowly. But while the students won't break any speed records they do learn the right way to repair automobiles-and speed will come with practice, explains MCC instructor Richard Hranac. Hranac, an auto mechanic for twenty-five years, is the coordinator for the college automotive technology program. He sees the MCC classes as a chance to teach students the correct procedures and the theory they need to fix cars. Students come out of the MCC program with either an associate of applied science degree or a certificate and the background they will need to become accomplished workers on either American or foreign made cars. Hranac explains. "The program prepares students for a variety of careers. In addition to work as a mechanic, the program teaches the skills you need to sell automotive parts, to work as a service writer for a repair shop or dealership, or to operate a gas station. And there are jobs available for people with the proper training." "All too many mechanics can't do the job. There are too many people workingjn service stations and repair shops who can tune up a car but can't take a transmission apart or who can do a brake job. but not a tune up," Hranac said. The MCC program is aimed at turning out automotive technicians who can deal with a variety of problems and work with the whole car. Hranac says. Studnets enrolled in the MCC classes learn the skills they will need by working on cars that belong to other students, instructors or other employees of MCC. In ex­ change for letting their cars become class guinea pigs, the car owners pay a small fee for the work on the car and save 20 percent from the retail cost of parts. The cars are needed because all the courses- whether they deal with engines, air conditioning, brakes or transmission-involve actual working with cars as well as classroom instruction. Students must pass written tests as well as turn out cars that work, Hranac explains In order to test the student's work before the parts are put back into the car and sent out onto the street, the lab is equipped with diagnostic equipment including a Clayton Dynamometer which can put a car through all of its paces without ever sending it out into the parking lot.

Hranac says the MCC shop is better equipped than those used by the more expensive trade schools people pay high prices to at­ tend. The MCC shop is equipped with drive-on racks, over-head lifts, equipment for alignment and wheel balancing, and engine performance testers. In the course dealing with tran­ smissions. clutches and drive- lines students use a testing stand to try out the tran­ smissions they have worked on. Students need a set of basic 2 tools, but more complex tools are provided. "This is«the first time that a full compliment of automotive courses will be offered during the summer session at MCC," continues Hranac. "Students who have some basic un­ derstandings of engines could begin taking courses this summer, or people who want to get the basics can sign up for a small engines fundamentals class which will teach them how to repair lawn mower and boat engines and to understand the theory and operation of engines." More advanced courses being taught at MCC this summer include: Automotive Chassis, Suspension and Brakes, Automotive Internal Com­ bustion Engine, Automotive Tune-up. Automotive Air Conditioning and Electrical Accessories, Manual Tran­ smissions, clutches and drive- lines and automotive cooperative internship. Hranac estimates that 140 students were enrolled in the automotive programs this past spring semester. Most are seeking careers with the average age of 25 to 30. But the program has also attracted several veterans, a machinist who wants to become a mechanic and a 70-year old man who is just interested in engines. Registration for the automotive classes and for other MCC credit and adult education courses is now in progress at the college campus and will continue through June ^ 7. Summer session begins June 6 with Saturday classes beginning June 4. Hranac explains that the need for competent auto technicians is apparent. "Seventy percent of the cars on the road have some problem, fifty percent need a tune up and another fifty percent need an oil change. It doesn't take much to figure out that this is costing us a tremendous amount of gasoline which we aren't going to have forever. And besides, you and I have to drive on the same roads and I like to think that if the college trains competent technicians it will help in the long run," he said.
