Summary: something different
Comment: i ordered this book thinking that it would tell me how to work on gas enginges. i was surprised, it was not at all the type of book i was looking for. but i opened it up and started reading. i have worked on car engines in the past with a degree of success, and i like to think that i can keep any engine running if it fall into the older model catagory. John O'Connor has written a book that i will be happy to keep with my "how to manuals", because this one is a "why" manual. if you are a novice, or even a little more advanced, this book explains the dynamics of a gas engine to a degree that will surely enlighten any reader. don't look for this book to fix your engine, look to this book before you start and what you may encounter when you start to do any modifications. a very impressive little book, put together well and very detailed. thanks for the great reading.

Summary: Complete?
Comment: I purchased this book after I bought my first boat expecting to get some information from an experienced person. I have a lot of friends I can talk to about cars but, nobody to talk to about boats - especially a competition ski boat. I was hoping to get some incite into the workings of a boat, especially some suggestions regarding maintenance and the function of things I didn't have much experience about like a stuffing box or raw water pump or direct drive. I was dissapointed.
It's a great book to start out with, if you don't know how an engine works or the basic function of a boat. If you are looking for maintenance tips, performance suggestions, solutions to problems you are having or anything specific, look elsewhere. This book gives an overview of these areas but no real information that you can use to diagnose a problem. You couldn't even close down your boat for the winter from the information. It is not comprehensive.
"General Guide to Gasoline Marine Engines" should be the title.
