Overview

Become an engine whisperer! This is a fun, relaxed course. No prior experience is required. John explains how a diesel engine works and shows you how to diagnose and fix common problems. There's some theory in the classroom but the majority of the course is hands-on, working outside on a running marine engine. So bring your overalls and warm clothes!
