Book Reviews of Troubleshooting and Repair of Diesel Engines

Book Review: Good book
Summary: 4 Stars

Received shipment very promptly. The book is very thorough, though in my case I think assumes I know a bit more about diesel mechanics, especially the hardware involved, than I do. Some of the illustrations are too small for all of the minute detail or process diagramming they attempt to convey.
