This excellent guide for "dummies" is sadly out of print. I loved it when I first read it years ago, and was thrilled to recently meet Mary Jackson, the author, in person. When I told her how sad I was to not be able to buy more copies for friends, she told me that all is not lost, and that most of the info in Greaseless Guide has now been reborn in her other book, Car Smarts.

If you loved Greaseless Guide but can't find it because it's out of print, try Car Smarts instead!

This is a great book if you know next to nothing about cars but you own one. Very well explained and not a struggle to read for the beginner. Gave me a handle on terms and what they mean and how to find your way around the repair shop. Should be curriculum for life skills class for everyone.

I'm sorry to see this book out of print. I purchased copies for each of my children and myself. Jackson clearly explains the essentials you need to know in order to talk to your mechanic and understand what is important and what is not. A must for those of us who just want our cars to run with as little personal involvement as possible.
