15 PREFACE Automotive Service: Inspection, Maintenance, Repair, 4th edition evolved in part from my participation in a successful articulation program between local high schools and the community college where I have been a teacher for over 37 years. The text and art manuscripts of this best-selling book have once again been updated and improved in this fourth edition revision. An array of excellent technical reviews by a dedicated group of professional teachers and technicians ensures that this is the most technically accurate and up-todate comprehensive automotive textbook available in the marketplace. The text has been written from a carefully detailed outline to allow each chapter to follow a logical, easy-to-understand path. Many new original color photographs and sketches have been added to update and supplement earlier material. The transportation industry in North America is vast, with one in every six people contributing to it in some way. These include people of many levels of understanding and ability. With that in mind, the introductory fundamentals chapters are written at a lower level for all the students, whereas the service chapters are for those who have mastered the introductory material. As a teacher, my philosophy is to challenge the best students in anticipation that the rest will be brought to a higher level: A rising tide raises all boats. The text can be used for a variety of educational purposes, including: As a basic text in any automotive repair class To educate entry-level or apprentice technicians To prepare more experienced technicians for ASE certification Automotive Service: Inspection, Maintenance, Repair, 4th edition is divided into 79 chapters that cover the NATEF Auto General Service Technician Program Standards and A1 A8 (the eight ASE automotive specialty areas). Advanced engine performance and emission controls are also covered in detail. In addition to coverage of the usual repairs performed in almost any automotive repair facility, the reader is introduced to the most frequently performed inspection and service procedures from safety inspections to tire and wheel service. The automotive repair industry of today continues to evolve into more of a maintenance industry as vehicles last longer and require fewer repairs. Longterm customer relationships, ethics, and professionalism have become even more important to the success of a business. There are also environmental concerns today that were not a part of the industry of the past. The text includes chapters on safety, hand tools, and vehicle maintenance and lubrication that are more comprehensive than those found in most comparable texts. An accompanying lab manual emphasizes the NATEF Auto General Service Technician Program Standards, those jobs done in service stations, fastlube outlets, or mass merchandisers (such as Sears, Goodyear, Firestone, or Kmart). An additional lab workbook, Automotive Service Job Sheets for NATEF Task Mastery, covers the eight main ASE system areas. Automobiles have become so complex in the last 30 years that to remain competent many of today s technicians specialize in one or more systems of the car. Basic theory of all automotive and light truck systems is covered so that service personnel will understand the function of the parts being serviced. When working in the industry, there is often no time for basic theory. Therefore, automotive class work could be the one and only chance students have to learn how systems operate so they can become better diagnosticians in the future. This book is comprehensive in that it deals with the entire car and aims to teach theory of vehicle systems at an introductory student level, followed by service, diagnosis, and light repairs at a more advanced student level. Most of the systems used in automobiles today are strikingly similar. Repair techniques universal to all automobiles are discussed and procedures or conditions unique to only one specific automobile make are purposely avoided. The reader is encouraged to refer to the service and repair information for the specific vehicle in question. A major challenge for me as an automotive author is to keep the scope of the book from growing out of control by expanding into areas of in-service training best covered by manufacturers and aftermarket educators. My objective is to take an abundance of sometimes complicated information and condense and simplify that information so it can be understood by a student preparing for job-entry level. Following the completion of this text, better students will be at a high job-entry level, at a skill level suitable for entry as an apprentice in one or more of the specialty areas of automotive repair in a new car dealership or an independent repair shop. A primary objective of this book is to help the reader develop confidence in both thinking skills and problem-solving ability. One unique aspect of automotive education is that many automotive graduates venture into other professions and skilled trades, such as engineering or construction. They will find much of the material learned in automotive classes to be very valuable and useful in their chosen fields. This aspect of the student s education is especially valuable when one considers how middle school and high school industrial arts programs have been scaled back in recent xv PRELIMS.indd xv

16 xvi PREFACE years. Dealing with such things as tools, soldering, basic electrical repairs, and repairing broken fasteners helps to provide some measure of practical education. The tremendous decline in the number of corner gasoline service stations has resulted in a loss of those jobs formerly available in abundance to students. Successful service personnel who possess necessary basic automotive skills must continually learn new things in order to progress into other (higher-paying) specialty areas. The Lab Manual to Accompany Automotive Service contains service jobs that students should be able to perform before enrolling in an advanced automotive specialty area class.

As copper line flexes and vibrates, it work hardens and can crack. Cutting Tubing (a) (b) When tubing is cut to length, it must be square on the end. A tubing cutter is good for this (Figure 24.22). Using a hacksaw will leave a rough edge that might not be square. Dressing the end of the tubing with a file can leave metal chips in the end of the tube. If the metal chips are not removed, serious damage to parts can result. When cutting tubing with a tubing cutter, the 3/4" tool is tightened against the tubing. Then it is rolled around the tubing while continuously tightening the handle to advance the cutter as it moves further into 1/2" the tubing. Be careful not to advance the cutter too fast as it finishes cutting through the tubing. If the cutter breaks through too fast, the tubing can be damaged. After the tubing has been cut, a burr usually 3/8" remains on the end. Most tubing cutters have a reamer blade for removing the burr (Figure 24.23). Be sure to remove metal chips from the end of the tubing after completing the cut. Some tubing cutters are very small. In tight quarters, these can be used for repairing damaged tubing on the vehicle. The tubing cutter shown in Figure is especially handy for this.

Tim Gilles Cooling Air bag deployment system is based on the rate of change in acceleration measured by the accelerometer. The rate of change, called JERK, is mapped through time by a mathematical algorithm. The algorithm, based on a genetic model, is used to make the complex decisions during a crash Combustion regarding whether, and how to, deploy the system. chamber The algorithm improves each year as more is learned about crash protection. Tim Gilles Figure When there is an internal leak, coolant will flow into the cylinder when the engine is off and during the intake stroke. During combustion, exhaust gas migrates into the cooling system. The computer repeatedly monitors the accelerometer value during fractions of a second. In GM s system, when an average of four consecutive samples exceeds a force of 1 2 g, the algorithm is enabled and determines whether a deployment should occur.

Delphi Corporation SCIENCE AND MATH NOTE Cengage Learning 2012 Cengage Learning 2012 Cengage Learning /12/10 5:27 PM 03/12/10 4:29 PM 03/12/10 4:36 PM Safety is the number-one priority in an automotive shop. There are numerous safety notes placed throughout the text. Most of the safety notes have been taken from real-world experiences and many are accompanied by actual case histories. CASE HISTORIES Case histories are presented throughout the text. These true stories recount actual automotive situations encountered by the author in over 30 years in automotive service. Case histories present the reader with examples of the pattern of critical thinking skills required to diagnose automotive problems. SCIENCE, HISTORY, COMPUTER SYSTEM, AND MATH NOTES These notes are included when interesting topics relating to them are covered in the text. The objective of these features is to pique the student s interest and show a correlation between his or her automotive studies and these areas of learning. REVIEW QUESTIONS These questions guide the student to the most important points in the chapter and act as a check for understanding of the material. Each chapter s review questions are presented in the same order in which they appear in the chapter. This provides an instructor with the flexibility to assign portions of the chapter to read and then follow up with a few of the study questions. ASE-STYLE REVIEW QUESTIONS These questions are designed to provide preparation for the certification examinations administered by the National Institute for Automotive Service Excellence (ASE). The ASE test is a task-oriented test (the test taker is supposed to be able to relate to shop-oriented questions), so the practice tests should help the student in becoming familiar with accepted trade procedures. 03/12/10 4:37 PM xxii PRELIMS.indd xxii

23 FEATURES OF THE TEXT xxiii SUPPLEMENTS LAB # 1 Instructor Resources The fourth edition Instructor Resources DVD includes an Instructor s Guide in Microsoft Word, a Computerized Test Bank in ExamView with hundreds of modifiable questions (true/false, fill-in-the-blank, and ASEstyle multiple choice), chapter presentations in PowerPoint with full-color images, video clips and animations, a searchable Image Library of hundreds of full-color photos and line art from the core text, and Correlation Grids to the NATEF Automobile Program Standards. CourseMate The all new CourseMate for Automotive Service, 4th edition, offers students and instructors access to important tools and resources, all in an online environment. The CourseMate includes an Interactive ebook for Automotive Service, Fourth Edition, nearly 300 videos and animations, interactive quizzes, flashcards, an interactive glossary, and an Engagement Tracker tool for monitoring students progress in the CourseMate product. WebTutor Advantage Newly available for Automotive Service is the WebTutor Advantage for the Blackboard online course management system. The WebTutor includes chapter presentations in PowerPoint, end-of-chapter review questions, pretests and posttests, discussion springboard topics, and more, all designed to enhance the classroom and shop experience. Lab Manual The Lab Manual includes Worksheets that define each lab procedure, presented in increasing levels of difficulty. Each project or lab assignment is built upon the next in a logical sequence in much the same manner as science instructional programs are constructed, and the reader completes one task before progressing to the next one. In addition, a variety of illustrations support the Worksheets and help visual learners better understand the jobs. The Worksheets are keyed to the NATEF Auto General Service Technician Programs Standards where applicable. Automotive Service Job Sheets for NATEF Task Mastery The Job Sheets in this manual cover all P-1, P-2, and most P-3 procedures as identified by the most recent NATEF Automobile Program Standards. Full-color illustrations offer visual support to the Job Sheets, and the sequence of topics follows that of the core text. Each Job Sheet includes a simple and clear rating rubric for instructor evaluation of student performance on the task, and a supplemental CD-ROM includes NATEF task-tracking software for easy recording of students mastery of the procedures. Teaching aids/handouts: Safety tests (due today) safety transparencies (in file with safety tests) Wheel lug torque handout Hydraulics Transparency Gousha Lift Transparencies - cover lift points only Lesson: Students will meet in the classroom at the beginning of each lab day. We will see who brought in cars and reassign jobs to any groups where the assigned person did not bring a car. The LTA or teacher will inform the security guard at the kiosk that no permits are to be honored unless they have a handwritten note from the instructor giving permission to be late. The reason for this is that the people who are tardy will already have had their project reassigned to another person in the group. Check add cards to see that they have been processed by admissions Spend about 45 minutes covering lift points, the Car Care Guide (lift points only). Demo the lifts and jacks. Show the lab manual, go over lab assignment sheet #1, and the lab schedule. There is a lab assignment sheet for each week s lab. All labs must be completed before other lab projects can be undertaken. Describe the difference between 10 ton, 2 ton, and 1 1/2 ton Jacks, use transparency. Tell personal stories related to safety as you read each safety test question and put the answer on the board for them to copy onto the copy of the test that will be saved in our file. Go to lab for the demo and return to class afterward for the safety presentation Safety test from book. Pass out the safety test and have them fill them in. Put all answers to safety test on board. Most of them were covered last time during the service station safety section. Put a wrong answer on the board, even though you read the right sentence. Substituting acid for water works well. See how many of them write the wrong word down because they were not paying attention. Try it again and you ll probably still catch some of them. Have them correct each others test and then fix any wrong answers. Describe the Starburst symbol on a can of oil. Tell people bringing oil changes to look up their oil capacity in the Car Care Guide first, or bring 5 quarts to be safe. Next class is lecture/demo only. Oil changes will be half of the class after it. Find one student who wants to bring in a car with oil and a filter to have demonstrated next class (lecture day). After the safety test have a shop tour. If time remains after the tour, they can complete their jacking and lifting assignments and get their shop workbooks signed off Demo: RACK/JACKS/SAFETY/SPEC MANUALS Show them how to locate lift points for their vehicle in the Car Care Guide. Look up the lift points for the demo shop cars, Xerox them and have them inside the windshield so you can show the beginners where the lift points are and what the sheet that they should be xeroxing looks like. Instructor OK Score ASE LAB PREPARATION WORKHEET # 8-11 Checking Engine Oil Pressure Name Class Part III: Lesson Plans - Fundamentals Of Automotive Servicing 000 OBJECTIVE: Upon completion of this assignment, you will be able to connect an oil pressure gauge to measure an engine oil pressure.
