Diesel Engine Technology

This textbook walks through how diesel engines are built and how they work, then moves on to diagnosing, maintaining, servicing, and repairing them. It addresses engines used in both mobile and stationary settings, including those in cars and trucks that travel on and off the road, as well as engines powering boats, farm equipment, and factory machinery. The material is laid out in a straightforward way that is easy to follow.

The book is well suited to working technicians who service or repair diesel engines, and to students training for that work. It also prepares readers for three ASE certification exams: Medium/Heavy Truck Test T2 on diesel engines, Test T6 on electrical and electronic systems, and Test T8 on preventive maintenance inspection.
