He just said an Eclipse...I know I'm not helping. I'll tell you how I did it, I took a college course in Automotive Technology, and we almost had to buy that book you're talking about but didn't. It has to be the most fun class I have ever taken in my life. So I never actually looked at the book but I'm sure it was very useful. we never took a test.
