Publisher's Note
A must-have guide for small engine repair journeymen, this practical manual on outboard mechanics (ideal for use in conjunction with a factory service manual) explains the technical theory of operation necessary to prepare for certification or recertification tests, empowering readers with a basic understanding that will help them troubleshoot and repair quickly and with confidence. Reflecting today's latest advances, it presents the fundamentals of two- and four-cycle outboards, with thorough coverage of theory, diagnostics, service, and major repairs, and thoroughly examines such present-day technology as oil injection, fuel injection, and electronic ignition systems. Adds new material on four-stroke outboard, powerhead engines, and more. Various boating performance problems are considered, and precautionary sections are included ("Safety: You Are In Charge" - a safety presentation on school shop tools and situations - plus "Coast Guard Rules For The Road.")
