There are nearly 93,000 Master Techs and over 47,000 L1 Certified, but I couldn't find how many of the L1's are Masters. I would assume that most of the L1 holders are also Masters though. The L1 is the most difficult ASE test I have taken, and I did not bother to get it until after I had been Master Certified over 5 years.
There are 2 major types 1. General Service Tech 2. ASE Certified Tech

I would say most Master ASE certified techs own their own shop. Why work for somebody if you're a master tech? So their pay would vary. My dad nets (profits) 150,000/yr. which is decent from a single shop

No, Ase is only for automotive
ASE is the National Institute for Automotive Service Excellence. An ASE certified Mechanic has been instructed and tested on how to perform maintenance on a vehicle. There are different areas of specialization for ASE certifications for different systems on a car. ASE certified mechanics aren't necessarily better mechanics but they take the job seriously to get certified and if you have a choice you should choose a mechanic with an ASE Certification. The person asked what is an ase MASTER mechanic? This specifically means the mechanic has passed all or nearly all certifications (tests) available in a test series (ie: auto, med truck, collision, etc ...) and the mechanic must also document at least two years of hands-on work experience. For example in the auto series there are 8 tests (A1 through A8) required before you are considered a master mechanic.
Check with the specific dealership where you purchased your car from in regards to the timing belt to get a quote. Or, consult a local mechanic such as those with ASE certified technicians.
ASE Technicians must have at least 2 years of experience and pass the examination. Completion of an automotive training program in high school, vocational or trade school, or community or junior college may be substituted for 1 year of experience. For ASE certification as a Master Automobile Technician, technicians must be certified in all eight areas.8 different areas of automotive service, such as electrical systems, engine repair, brake systems, suspension and steering, and heating and air-conditioning.These are just some of the guidelines that have to be met.I dont think theres a age limit but I would say you probably be over 18 by the time u actually got the certification.
