Book excerpt: The Adlard Coles Book of Outboard Motors, previously known as The RYA Book of Outboard Motors, is aimed at all boatowners, rather than experienced mechanics. Covering both 2 and 4 stroke engines, it explains how even the most sophisticated of modern outboards use simple processes to convert fuel to power, and then looks at each section of the sub-systems that allow those processes to take place: the fuel system, the ignition system, cooling and lubrication, the electrical system, transmission and controls. This book includes sections on routine maintenance and fault-finding, and even has a photo sequence showing the vital first aid required to save the life of an outboard engine that has been dropped overboard! It will be invaluable to anyone who puts to sea with an outboard engine.
