Format: Kindle
I got this book to use for an elective in our homeschool year. This is just what I was looking for. The beginning of the book provides an overview of what auto repair entails. These sections also go over what tools and equipment you will need as well as how to protect yourself and your surroundings. Then we get into the repair tasks. Each task is given a description and then individual repairs are described below. For example, the section may be about checking different fluid levels. Then, the following sections cover oil, transmission fluid, windshield wiper fluid, and power steering fluid. And step by step directions are provided for each one. Everything is explained in a way that even the most novice person can follow along. ... show more
