AC Maintenance & Repair Manual for Outboard Motors

*The Adlard Coles Book of Outboard Motors* , previously known as *The RYA Book of Outboard Motors* , is **aimed at boatowners, rather than experienced mechanics**.

Covering both 2 and 4 stroke engines, it explains how even the most

sophisticated of modern outboards use simple processes to convert fuel

to power, and then looks at each of the sub-systems that allow those

processes to take place: the fuel system

the ignition system

cooling and lubrication

the electrical system

transmission and controls.

The book **includes sections on routine maintenance and fault finding** ,

and even has a photo sequence showing the vital first aid required to

save the life of an outboard engine that has been dropped overboard! It

will be **a boon to anyone who puts to sea with an outboard engine**.

'Explains in clear, jargon-free English how an outboard works and how to look after it' *Kelvin Hughes*

'An excellent book, well thought out and well written' *Motorboats Monthly*
