Prepare tomorrow’s automotive professionals for success
Light Vehicle Diesel Engines covers the theory, construction, diagnosis, and service of light vehicle diesel engines, including the practical skills students must master to be successful in the industry. This new title is designed for the “keystone” course of a two-year automotive program; it examines the advanced technology of on-board diagnosis and up-to-date diesel technology. Using a format that appeals to today’s technical trade students, Halderman and Ward offer helpful tips and visuals to bring concepts to life and guide students through the procedures they’ll use on the job. All of the content conforms to the latest ASE areas.

Cover important automotive topics in a student-friendly format:
Present topics in short, easy-to-read chapters. Light Vehicle Diesel Engines makes teaching and learning easier by breaking the content into small, manageable segments. It features twice as many chapters as competitive texts so that a topic or an entire short chapter can be assigned and taught instead of assigning individual page numbers or questions.
Explain how to diagnose faults. In addition to explaining how a system works, most chapters include diagnostic procedures and the steps needed to troubleshoot faults.
Demonstrate how systems are connected. The theory, construction, diagnosis, and service of a particular component or system are presented together, in one location. All of the information that students need to understand a topic is included when it’s presented, so there’s no need to search through the book for other references to the same topic.
Deliver the most up-to-date standards content. All content in the book has been updated and correlated to the latest ASE areas.
Bring the subject to life and facilitate learning:
Support visual learners with engaging art programs:
Visualize concepts with full-color photos and line drawings. Photos and line drawings complement the text. The photos show the parts of actual engines, including the Duramax diesel engine (chapter 23), the Cummins 6.7 liter six cylinder engine (chapter 24), and the 3.0 liter Fiat Chrysler V-6 diesel engine (chapter 25). The line drawings allow the reader to see what’s inside a component and how it works.
Break a task down using step-by-step photos. Step-by-step photo sequences detail the steps involved in performing a specific task or service procedure.
Make reading, studying, and content mastery easier. Every chapter includes bulleted and numbered lists to summarize concepts or the steps in a procedure, while the design for main and sub-headings makes it easier to grasp the scope of the chapter. Finally, each chapter ends with a Summary, Review Questions, and a Quiz. Answers to chapter questions can be found in the Instructor’s Manual.
Help students prepare for their professional career.
Prepare for the ASE Certification exam. ASE test correlation charts are provided in the Appendix. The textbook and workbook page numbers are listed in the Instructor’s Manual to make learning and teaching easier.
Illustrate important concepts using real-world examples:
Offer the perspective of a technician and automotive instructor. The authors deliver the point-of-view of a technician and automotive instructor rather than an engineer, technical writer, or salesperson.
Present real situations. Real World Fix boxes present students with actual service scenarios and show how the problems were diagnosed and repaired.
Alert students to potential safety hazards. Safety Tips alert students to possible hazards on the job.
Give practical advice. Tech Tips offer real-world advice from ASE-certified master technicians.
Answer Frequently Asked Questions. Based on the authors’ own experience, FAQs provide answers to questions often asked by students and beginning service technicians.
Guide students through on-the-job situations with practical advice:
Offer students a greater understanding of a specific task. Notes provide additional technical information.
Limit potential damage to the vehicle. Cautions alert students to potential damage to the vehicle that can occur during a specific service procedure.
Limit potential harm to the technician. Warnings alert students to potential harm that may occur to the technician during a specific service procedure.
Support teaching and learning:
Supplement your course with a full instructor support package. To make teaching from this text easier, textbook adopters have access to a TestGen computerized Test Bank and presentation slides.
Get up and running quickly using the Instructor’s Manual. The Instructor’s Manual contains Sample Syllabus, ASE Task List, Chapter Outline, and Answers to chapter questions. Use the additional teaching notes keyed to the textbook page numbers to help you prepare to discuss, review, preview, and reinforce important content.
Bundle with the ASE Correlated Task Sheets. Contact your Pearson Representative to find out how your students can save when you bundle the ASE Test Prep Guide and Correlated Task Sheets workbook.
