Trouble Shooting Gasoline Marine Engines, February 19, 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: Trouble Shooting Gasoline Marine Engines (Paperback)
While this book would make an interesting text for an engineer, it is of little use to the average reader or backyard mechanic (Which the author readily admits...). The descriptions of all the critical operations of an engine are largely academic, and few readers would be able use this text to gain insight into their engine woes. Fewer still would be able to effect a repair based on a chapter's content. This is not the text to bring along for emergency repairs! It is well written, and can educate a reader who has the patience to sit through it. If you are bored and curious, you may find this new understanding fulfilling, yet not especially helpful.
