Modern Automotive Technology Tenth Edition, Revised, Shop Manual

The Modern Automotive Technology Shop Manual contains thorough coverage of the tasks listed in the ASE Education Foundation Task List. Each job in this manual is a hands-on activity that corresponds to one or more of the ASE Education Foundation tasks. The jobs have been carefully organized and developed to increase the student’s chances of passing the related ASE tests by having the student apply what has been learned in the classroom. The jobs are not correlated to specific textbook chapters, but will be assigned when the instructor determines that the student has sufficient knowledge to complete them. This manual steps the student through all essential ASE Education Foundation tasks including inspecting, testing, and diagnosing vehicle systems; removing and replacing self-contained components; and removing, overhauling, and reinstalling major components. This manual is divided into eight areas corresponding to the ASE certification areas and the eight areas of the ASE Education Foundation Task List. Each area of the manual is further subdivided into a number of projects, or collections of closely related jobs. The eight areas of the manual, the projects, and jobs they contain are color coded to make it easy to locate specific content in the manual. The projects in this manual include a brief introduction about the type of service being performed, a list of the jobs included in the project, and a tools and materials list for the jobs. The jobs in this manual are designed to be accomplished in one or two lab sessions. Check boxes are provided in the left-hand column of the job so the student can mark off tasks as they are performed. Blanks are provided for recording service-related information. If properly implemented, this manual will help the student to do well in his or her courses, pass the ASE certification tests, and find a job in the automotive industry. Read more
