Description
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
