The 5th edition of BASIC AUTOMOTIVE SERVICE & SYSTEMS is a comprehensive Classroom Manual/Shop Manual set provides an accessible overview of automotive systems to prepare you for all aspects of work in the field. Now fully updated to align with the new ASE Education Foundation accreditation model introduced in 2012, the Fifth Edition features a new full color design, more coverage of hybrid vehicles and emerging technologies, and revised and updated coverage of electronic engine controls.
