The information is presented in an accessible, manageable fashion, making maintenance and basic repair of your engine straightforward with minimum stress. The book includes diagrams, quick reference tables, box features, QR videos, clear explanations, top tips and checklists. There are also plenty of amusing anecdotes and examples of useful lessons learned.
