Engines & Transmissions Editorial Review

This book is highly recommended by customers for novice and experienced mechanics alike due to its clear instructions, color photos, and informative content. However, some customers found that some basic steps were assumed and that the layout made it necessary to flip back and forth, which is frustrating when working with oily hands. In addition, some important details were not mentioned with the photos, which sometimes led to incorrect work or re-doing the work. There were also noted differences on torque specs between this book, a Chilton's book, and an original Datsun factory service manual. Lastly, there is little information about fastener lengths, which is critical when working with older engines. Despite these issues, this book is highly useful when paired with additional resources and online research.
