Glossary


If you're unfamiliar with the jargon, automotive terms can sound like pig Latin - familiar but nonsensical. That's why I've provided a practical glos¬sary that tells you what something is and gives you advice about it as well. Throughout the book, glossary terms are set in a special font to remind you to go to the glossary when you see a word that you don't recognize or a ten that you don't understand.

Special Features
To be sure that you can find whatever you need easily, there's an extra large index, so you can look for a part, system, symptom, or problem when you return to this book for instructions. If you're not sure what to look for, try general terms like "How to" and "Troubleshooting." There's also a Maintenance Record to remind you to get busy if you've let things go too long, and a handy Specifications Record so that you have the numbers of the parts you need when you go to the auto supply store.

Icons used in This Book
1 This icon points to suggestions or hints that can make a task easier, save you money, help you avoid hassles, or otherwise make your life easier.
2 This icon indicates information that you may have encountered elsewhere in the book and need to take into consideration.
3 This icon appears beside technical information that, although interesting (at least to me), you can skip without risking anything important.
4 This icon appears beside information that you want to watch out for because it points out events or circumstances that are dangerous or can end up cost¬ing you a lot of money.
5 This icon appears beside rules that you absolutely must follow if you want to achieve success in a particular situation. There aren't many of them, so pay attention when you do come across them!
6 This icon appears beside real-life stories that provide a relaxing respite from serious subjects and demonstrate what you should - or should not - do to avoid major trouble or to triumph in difficult situations.
