“Large fleets of diesel lorries are owned by manufacturers and industrial undertakings, and it was to meet the need for a book which dealt with their operation and particularly with their maintenance and repair that this handbook has been produced.  It deals with practical aspects of design; methods of diagnosing injection troubles; the maintenance of the injectors; fuel-injection pump maintenance; the fuel-supply system; centrifugal and pneumatic governors; decarbonising; reconditioning the valve gear; the pistons, rings and cylinders; the connecting rod and main bearings; engine auxiliaries; modern fuel-oil engines; and a biographical chapter dealing with the diesel engine.”
