Mysteries revealed! February 14, 2001 12 out of 13 found this review helpful
I recommend this book to anyone who ever wondered about the mysteries of an internal combustion engine. It is written for students and it covers the technical as well as practical aspects of small engines. It takes you through a blow-by-blow engine tear down and rebuild but is still an easy read. All aspects are covered from valve clearances (I know what that is now!) to rope pulls. Although this book was written for the person who plans on becoming a professional, I (a complete novice) was able to rebuild one engine and two carburetors for myself, and troubleshoot several other engines for friends who think I'm magic now.
