For fairly unskilled work..I would be looking at customer sevice.. that sort of thing, as that is this sort of area.

AAPT often has openings available for call centre operators. The theme parks often have openings if you're a bit of a people person.

Even something like working for a cleaning company cleaning hotels, factories, or the like if you're really desparate to just get something.

There is plenty of construction around, so if you can handle labouring in the hot sun, there is a bit of that work around.

My suggestions anyhow.

Blue card, hard hat, and good work boots, many will require an abn too. The blue card is $75-100, and there are a few web sites where you can do the test.

But yeah, what are your actual skills.

thanks for youe help thus far guys

the job doesnt necessaraily have to be on the gold coast but within travelling distance each day

thanks

We cant help you unless you tell us your qualifications...

I mean there are 3 jobs i can think of off the top of my head. But all 3 require a little knowledge in their fields...

Maby you dont have any qualifications... But if you put the following we will be able to help;

1. Age

2. Location (suburb)

3. Car Y/N

4. Education Level

5. (most important) What jobs have u had and for how long?

Mate....

Just to be completelly honest now...

No... If you cant go to the effort of answering a few simple questions that really does nothing to identify you or harm you which will help other help u also. In order to get a job i dont think i would be keen on interviewing you as already im not hearing any enthuisam.

Sorry

OK....

The jobs i have on the books will be a little too much at the moment. Also fast food joints will say your 17 (meaning they could hire 2 x 14 year olds for the same dollar) So might i suggest getting back into retail (not iga) but more like Target or K-Mart. Become a shelf stocker, work your way up.

Yes retail means weekend work. But remember retail means air conditioned work and great rates ($$$) for casual and part timers. Also with retail you always have promotion in larger company's. I mean you can drop out of school at year 10 and still earn over 150k as a department manager for coles myer.... Think about it....

    • @Haggerty this is your red flag. In MAP based ECU's the Manifold pressure X RPM calculation is how the engine knows it is actually...running/going through ANY load. You are confusing the term 'base map' with your base VE/Fuel table. When most people say 'base map' they mean the stock entire tune shipped with the ECU, hopefully aimed at a specific car/setup to use as a base for beginning to tune your specific car. Haltech has a lot of documentation (or at least they used to, I expect it to be better now). Read it voraciously.
    • I saw you mention this earlier and it raised a red flag, but I couldn't believe it was real. Yes, the vacuum signal should vary. It is the one and only load signal from the engine to the ECU, and it MUST vary. It is either not connected or is badly f**ked up in some way.
    • @Haggerty you still haven't answered my question.  Many things you are saying do not make sense for someone who can tune, yet I would not expect someone who cannot tune to be playing with the things in the ECU that you are.  This process would be a lot quicker to figure out if we can remove user error from the equation. 
    • If as it's stalling, the fuel pressure rises, it's saying there's less vacuum in the intake manifold. This is pretty typical of an engine that is slowing down.   While typically is agree it sounds fuel related, it really sounds fuel/air mixture related. Since the whole system has been refurbished, including injectors, pump, etc, it's likely we've altered how well the system is delivering fuel. If someone before you has messed with the IACV because it needed fiddling with as the fuel system was dieing out, we need to readjust it back. Getting things back to factory spec everywhere, is what's going to help the entire system. So if it idles at 400rpm with no IACV, that needs raising. Getting factory air flow back to normal will help us get everything back in spec, and likely help chase down any other issues. Back on IACV, if the base idle (no IACV plugged in) is too far out, it's a lot harder for the ECU to control idle. The IACV duty cycle causes non linear variations in reality. When I've tuned the idle valves in the past, you need to keep it in a relatively narrow window on aftermarket ecus to stop them doing wild dances. It also means if your base idle is too low, the valve needs to open too much, and then the smallest % change ends up being a huge variation.
    • I guess one thing that might be wrong is the manifold pressure.  It is a constant -5.9 and never moves even under 100% throttle and load.  I would expect it to atleast go to 0 correct?  It's doing this with the OEM MAP as well as the ECU vacuum sensor. When trying to tune the base map under load the crosshairs only climb vertically with RPM, but always in the -5.9 column.
