what is a good starter book for auto repair.?

Jan 13, 2009 by darius_xanctus | Posted in Maintenance & Repairs

Hello. I am looking for a starter book in auto repair. I know how to change oil, spark plugs, the basics, but I would like to know how cars work, ignition system, combustion,electrical system, and being able to perfom small repairs. I would like to learn

Buy a pile of $hit car with a blown head gasket and a repair manual for it.

Replace the head gasket.

You learn a lot more from doing, than reading about it.
