There are two types of people who work on cars: those who have to and those who want to. While there are plenty of guides for people who are working on their cars out of necessity, this book is not one of them. This book was written for the true enthusiast who WANTS to work on their vehicle because they enjoy it.

Car Care for Car Guys gives you the critical car care knowledge and advice that true gearheads possess, but could take years to acquire on your own. Author Ralph Kalal tells you what you need to know before you get your hands dirty under the hood. After following him step by step through a selection of detailed how-to projects, you'll be ready to tackle almost any automotive maintenance task or repair. While the other guides simply tell you how to repair something, this book goes into much greater depth, teaching the budding enthusiast not only about the steps required, but how the systems work, and why the repair is important.
