This guide should help you work on and figure out seven important automotive projects all of which can be costly problems for many owners. There are explanations on how to approach the projects clearly, and if there are problems to watch for I clearly detail for the reader ways to resolve them quickly without taking the vehicle to a garage. Being a fan of both professional mechanics and Do It Yourself projects, I find certain auto repair tasks are well within the back yard mechanical persons abilities. I have been writing technical manuals and how to guides for over 25 years and it is always fun to write about topics like automotive repair since i truly love all things mechanical.
