Note: The courses Automotive Diesel Mechanics, Caterpillar Diesel (55618-00), Cummins Diesel I (55617-01), and Cummins Diesel II (55617-02) have some overlap in course material. It is therefore recommended that a maximum of 6 credits be granted for completion of two or more of these courses. This course has been reevaluated and continues to meet the requirements for credit recommendations. (The Cummins Diesel II course was discontinued in 1983 and replaced with the Cummins Diesel III course. The change was made because of an equipment change. This change does not affect the course description or credit recommendation.) (9/77) (4/84).
