Re: mechanic's books

Usually there is a book available like Basic Engine Repair, or Engine Tune Up.

I started from a book that came with a timing light/dwell meter set. It listed all the tune-up specs for every car at the time and also went into detail about how the systems worked.

In fact, if you buy a Haynes or Chilton's manual for your current car, they always include a generic section on how to do the basics.
