 Outboard engines by sherman
In reading over Boating Magazine's Outboard engines, I found the book to be very excellent for the person who wants to try to learn about their outboard. Now if you need specific info. than you need to get a service manual for your particular engine.
On the whole I thought the book was well illustrated and done by very knowledgeable writer(s).
I highly recommend this book for a novice boat engine owner.
Excellent book!
The book is very helpful, especially for diagnosing motor problems.
This book combined with the specific repair manual for your year,make model is all you need.
 Very Basic General Overview
This book is okay as an introduction to how outboards work, but if you know anything about mechanics, I'd recommend you forego this and just buy a factory repair manual for your engine - as this book is frustrating in its lack of detail.
 Outboard Engine Maintenance
Great book with indepth explanations and step by step troublshooting procedures. Lots of Illustrations and techniques. Easy to follow tips and techniques. A pleasure to read. Written from the novice point of view.
Marine Repair Bible
I'm currently enrolled in a two year program that will certify me as a marine technical specialist. This book supplements provided course materials and has also been used as a text in the class which covers all aspects of marine repair. Any questions that I have and forget to ask in classes are easily, or sometimes not too easily, answered by this book. The author pays strict attention to detail and doesn't waste space with words. He gets right to the meat and potatoes of the issues, procedures and general mechanics of maintaining, trouble shooting and repairing all aspects of the outboard motor. There aren't a lot of big, fancy industry terms that sound overly scientific. Each chapter is concluded with a few pages worth of review questions meant to pound the real important stuff into your head in a way that is easily understood. There is not one area of marine repair concerning an outboard motor that isn't covered here, from total rebuilds to simple maintenance. Top to bottom, front to back, this book covers the outboard motor completely and is a must have in any serious mechanic's toolbox.
