Synopsis:

For courses in Automotive Principles, Suspension/Steering/Brakes, and Automotive Chassis.

This text presents general automotive principles and maintenance in a basic, step-by-step, hands-on approach for students with little or no understanding of automobiles. With each maintenance topic divided into separate lessons, an instructor can choose the topics that are most appropriate for a particular class. By also providing specific objectives for each of these separate lessons, both the student and instructor will be able to follow the progress of each student through a course.
