I want to learn more in depth about cars. I know how to check my fluids, change oil/filter, flush a radiator, change spark plugs, but I would like to REALLY learn about cars and how to repair them. I want to learn what makes an engine go, and how it works with the transmission, and how that ties in to moving the car. Are there any good books (or DVDs) out there that I can get to learn step by step? From basics to advance. I don't want to just get service manuals, but more a general how-to book(s). Thanks in advance.Are there any good books/DVDs that I can get to learn about the mechanics of cars (engine,transmission,etc)?There is alot of b ooks at the libarely that yo can check out .
