Diesel Technology: Fundamentals, Service by Andrew Norman
By Jim w/ Amsoil
I bought the book to enhance my knowledge of diesel engines. I own two Cummins diesels and have many customers that own diesels. The book is well written, easily read, easy to understand, and well organized. Its a text book so a little previous knowledge with diesels is helpful. The information is presented in theory as most text books are and has a work book that goes along with it to enhance your learning experience if you wish to buy it separate. The end of the chapters also have review questions if your interested in serious learning. I would recommend this book to anyone studying diesel engines. Remember its a text book not a tech manual. The book was in great shape & I received it promptly when ordered from the seller. I would buy from them again.

Misleading or cheating?
By F. Mo
I was looking for the textbook. The Amazon site lists "hardcover" and "paperback" versions. The paperback version is significantly less expensive. So I ordered the paperback version. It turned out that this "paperback" version is actually not the textbook itself, but the workbook for the textbook. Yet on the Amazon website, it is simply listed as "paperback" together with "hardcover" version. This is misleading at best and cheating in reality. The Amazon site should specifically indicate that this is the workbook, not the textbook.

Nice book!
By Ivan Linaric
Very nice book, simple but thorough.
It's very easy to find your way amongst chapters a find a desired topic.
For example, if you want to learn about injector nozzels, just find them in contents and it will take you directly to it. All info in one place. No need to scroll thru the whole book.
Good for engine rebuilders and workshops.
Every engine part is nicely described and supported by nice illustrations.
Also there are troubleshooting, assembly and disassembly procedures with pictures.
