So I''m brand new to cars, and therefore a little green. In all honesty I really don''t have the slightest idea when it comes to spark-plugs or radiators. So, anyone have any books that could help a new guy out? I''ve done what I can, reading on the internet, but I just love to actually turn pages.

Thanks

Chilton''s manuals are also good, but the best I''ve ever seen are:

AUTO REPAIR FOR DUMMIES, and

The READER''S DIGEST CAR CARE MANUAL

Both assume you know nothing, so you can start at the beginning and get clear concise information. You''ve taken a big step into a larger world.Best of luck.(and always buy good quality tools)
