This product was just received a few days ago. As I begin to read through it's pages, I'm impressed by the amount of information, both regarding OBDII, trouble shooting test equipment and how to use the mentioned test equipment. When you first order/receive this book, you think that it's going be all about OBDII scanner codes. Instead you find a rather complete information set regarding various test equipment and how to apply this gear to what's happening underhood. There's so much information regarding general test equipment and engine repair that I have to keep looking at the cover to see that indeed the book is about OBDII code scanners.
Stating the obvious, today's automobile engines are far more technical than what us old guys worked on in the 50's and 60's. All this technology required abandoning the personal satisfaction of fixing one's vehicle troubles. This book helps bring an old shadetree mechanic up to speed with today's engine technology and between this book and an OBDII scanner, I once again can get back under the hood.
After more time with this book, I'll post more impressions. I gave it four stars but only because I need more time with this book. In the interim, I can write that the amount of information in the few pages I've read, the book is well worth having. I might add that this book, without a doubt, makes for a fine inexpensive gift to give to a loved one who likes to do their own vehicle repairs.

First addendum: I've now had time to spend a couple of sessions perusing the first five chapters of this book. The book is a veritable wealth of basic automotive information for both the novice and the more experienced.
