Book Reviews of Outboard Engines: Maintenance, Troubleshooting and Repair

Book Review: Outboard engines by sherman
Summary: 5 Stars

In reading over Boating Magazine's Outboard engines, I found the book to be very excellent for the person who wants to try to learn about their outboard. Now if you need specific info. than you need to get a service manual for your particular engine.
On the whole I thought the book was well illustrated and done by very knowledgeable writer(s).
I highly recommend this book for a novice boat engine owner.

Summary of Outboard Engines: Maintenance, Troubleshooting and Repair

If like most do-it-yourselfers you've relied on a sketchy owner's manual or one of those abstruse shop manuals written for professional mechanics to keep your onboard running, here's an end to your frustration. This abundantly illustrated nonthreatening guide is filled with effective maintenance, repair, and advanced troubleshooting advice for two-cycle and four-cycle engines from 2 to 250 horsepower. Although outboard engines have become more reliable, they're also more sophisticated and require more than a passing knowledge of mechanics to troubleshoot and repair. Outboard Engines covers recent developments such as electronic ignition, oil injection systems, and four-stroke powerheads. Your fears about the reliability of your "finicky" outboard are over!
