Automotive Diesel Technology is written to provide the most current, relevant, and practical information concerning a new generation of light- and medium-duty diesel engines. This text is directed at the seventy percent-plus share of the diesel market owned by medium- and light-duty diesels. As the total number of diesels produced for this category grows in North America, the demand to understand and better service new low emission, environmentally friendly diesels is ore pressing. This book takes a comprehensive look at all the newest diesel engine systems from the air intake to fuel injection cooling lubrication and exhaust systems.
