Automotive Heating and Air Conditioning (6th Edition) Review

Automotive Heating and Air Conditioning (6th Edition)

I am a certified mechanic studying for the ASE air conditioning tests S7 and A7 and have found this book to be full of good information. I have read through some of the Motor AgeA7 Heating & A/C: The Motor Age Training Self-Study Guide for ASE Certification study guides and have found them to be severely lacking in detail. This book gives a complete overview of a/c systems and would be a great addition to your library.

Ideal for both novice and advanced technicians, Automotive Heating and Air Conditioning, Sixth Edition, provides a complete, state-of-the-art source on automotive heating, ventilation, and air conditioning systems.Correlated to NATEF and ASE tasks, the text focuses on the generic theory that underlies the operation, diagnosis, and repair of the units and subassemblies found in the many makes and types of vehicles students will likely encounter on the job. Formatted to better meet the learning needs of today's technical trade students, it visually supports concepts covered throughout, and includes many practical shop tips that guide students through important problem-solving procedures they'll use on the job.

Advanced Engine Performance Diagnosis (5th Edition) Review

This book like its prevuious editon does not cover PCM very much and many modern cars rely on PCM for igntion sytem proper functioning and diagnosis.
Forample the figure on showing Triggering and Switching both show the primary and secondary circuits with a crank sensor but do not show how the PCM plays a key role in the final functioning of the circuits.
It is a big shame !

Advanced Engine Performance Diagnosis, Fifth Edition, offers a practical, hands-on introduction to the diagnosis and troubleshooting of automotive engine control systems. It serves students as a single source for information on digital storage oscilloscopes, fuel injection and ignition system diagnoses, five-gas exhaust analysis, emission testing, and more–with a very technical, but easy-to-read and understand, presentation. This title meets the needs for a textbook that combines topics in engine performance (ASE A8 content area) and topics covered in the advanced engine performance (L1) ASE test content area. By combining these two complementary subjects into one comprehensive textbook, it is easier for the instructor to teach these topics and is cost effective for the student.

Machine Design Fundamentals: A Practical Approach Review

Machine Design Fundamentals: A Practical Approach

I bought a used copy of the 1983 publication of this book recently. It is excellent. Very good explanations of spur, worm, and helical gears with lots of diagrams and pictures that clearly illustrate the concepts presented. Chapters on mechanical clutches, bearings, sliding bearings, chain drives, springs, fasteners, belt drives, axles, shafts ect. The info presented is practicle and understandable. Good combination of mathmatical formulas and mechanical theory without being academic. Much of the info on gear design and theory is hard to find. Also info on stress and strain, designing for rigidity and strength. The chapters on gears alone easily justify the cost of the book. I wish more technical books were written like this one.
