Our Medium/Heavy Diesel Automotive Technician three-part course series covers industry trends and current technology to provide an in-depth guide to highway diesel engines and their management. This series prepares entry-level and experienced technicians alike for a successful career as a Medium/Heavy Diesel Automotive Technician by outlining the role of the truck technician, industry tools and standards for safety, and steps for diagnosing and servicing a full range of diesel engines. Learn the necessary knowledge to gain employment in the automotive industry with up-to-date content including the principles and practices underlying current and proposed ASE and NATEF tasks and the most current diesel engine management electronics used in the industry. This series provides everything a student needs to know to diagnose, service, and maintain diesel engine systems.
After completing this course, you should be able to:
- Define basic chemistry and combustion principles
- Identify diesel fuel characteristics and subsystems
- List components of fuel injection and principles of governing
- Recall the components and function of EUI systems
- Recognize the steps for diagnosing and managing common rail systems
