5.0 out of 5 stars Probst to the rescue!; this book is great!, September 27, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: Ford Fuel Injection & Electronic Engine Control: How to Understand, Service, and Modify : All Ford/Lincoln-Mercury Cars and Light Trucks 1980-1987 (Paperback)

Probst's book is a combined textbook and service manual on one of the most mystifying elements of modern automobiles, electronic engine control and electronic fuel injection (EFI).

Hurrah to Probst for being, as far as I can tell, the first person to produce something more than a simple overview of EFI; some manuals simply state that EFI is much to complex, requiring prohibitively expensive tools and (presumably unnatainable) automotive education, that the individual who desires to learn such systems and to repair his own vehicle is out of luck and should refer any EFI problems over to a "trained technician". Not Probst!

Probst's book is comprehensive. In it, he takes the reader from beginning to end starting with the scientific concepts underlying the function of EFI, (a pleasure for any engineer to study- including engine function and the need for EFI as opposed to carburetion), all the way to the hands on procedures of diagnosing and repairing EFI vehicles (a pleasure for any mechanic who is the owner of a poorly running EFI equipped car or truck).

If you have the desire to learn EFI, this book will offer you the knowlege you need: it is of tremendous value to one who simply needs to maintain his car on a limited budget, or to the mechanic who desires to expand his knowlege and career.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent. Technically detailed, but readable., June 21, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Ford Fuel Injection & Electronic Engine Control: How to Understand, Service, and Modify : All Ford/Lincoln-Mercury Cars and Light Trucks 1980-1987 (Paperback)

Thorough coverage of all components, including troubleshooting of individual components. I was able to solve my particular problem on first attempt, based on reading this book carefully. If you read and understand this book you will know more than 99% of technicians. Well worth the money.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good technical info, May 20, 2001

By	Jon (Lockport, NY United States) - See all my reviews

This book is an excellent source of info on Ford engine control. I recommend this book for anyone who works of Ford vehicles. The only section of the book that disappointed me was the performance modification section. The chapter explains why you should or should not install certain mods. It basically tells you to put in a turbo or supercharger. It does not give any technical info or instructions to performance modify your engine. More modification info can be found in any car enthusiast magazine at your local newstand. Otherwise this book is excellent. I recommend they change the subtitle to "How to Understand and Service," not modify, your EFI engine.
