Engine mgnt: optimizing modern fuel and ign. systems:
I have not received this order. I can't navigate your "where's my stuff" sect. I can't find any status section.
Excelent book, lots of information but reads like a tech buliten and leans toward British stuff:
This book is packed with information and is extremly well written to get the facts across. But the writing style is a bit technical, just the facts and how to do it all. it reads like a service bulitin. If you can learn from that then its great but if you cant then you wont be able to get through this book. It also leans toward british stuff, there is a section on carbs and it focus' on the weber side draft and one other british carb that i cant remember the name of right now. all in all it was a good book... more info
Good Foundational Book:
I just recently attended EFI University and was told by instructor to read this book. It had great information for beginning tuners. It even had section about tuning individual carburetors. The electronic fuel injection section was very informative but gave a slight bias to tuning british vehicles and individual throttle bodies. The book had many british words which I had to look up to understand. It included a special version of Emerald M3DK program to help beginning tuners to gain hands on experience.
an okay book:
This book is good for those who want to learn the basic EFI system. Some thoery, and some parts interesting. It was more oriented towards beginners.
