If you do drivability work at your shop this ASE Test Prep video and accompanying Test Prep Study Guide is for you. While many test prep programs simply go through a sample list of questions you “might” find on an ASE test, instructor Dave Hobbs takes the “show me” approach as he passes along his experience in the bay with engine performance problems. Using parts, tools of the trade, and hands-on exercises he covers every topic, including up-to-date ignition, fuel injection, starting, charging and emission systems. In the sample test questions Dave uses an OBD II fuel injection simulator, multi meter, scan tool and lab scope to drive home the points that will help you understand the topics that will come up in the ASE A8 test.
