The course teaches the basic theories such as atmospheric pressures, vacuum and venturi principals, which must be understood prior to working with the components and systems. Knowledge of basic engine operation and electrical systems is required. Emphasis is placed upon subject matter recommended by industry through the National Automotive Technicians Education Foundation (NATEF). This course is designed to help students prepare for the Automotive Service Excellence (ASE) certification exam in: Engine Performance. AT 261 incorporates substantial “hands on” training. Students will disassemble, inspect, repair and reassemble an automobile gas engine air induction, fuel, ignition, and timing systems.Course Outline:Jan 18 Chapter 3.

Students must do their own work; copying or plagiarism will not be tolerated and will result in ejection fromthe course. Based on the time constraints of some of the labs, missed labs may or may NOT be able to be made up by a student! Homework must be typed; late homework will not be accepted! Homework is typically gone over at the start of class. Homework is to be handed in and will be collected for grading proposes.In order to gain credit for a lab, you MUST come to class on time, and participate in the lab for the ENTIRE class period!Labs must be 100% complete. Any blank answers will result in a ZERO for that lab.Exams:2The exams will evaluate what the students have completed in the classroom and the lab. They will consist of short answer questions based on ASE-related test material and sample questions. Students will also have to perform hands-on based testing and demonstrate to the instructor lab-learned skills. Students caught cheating on exams, test, or quizzes will receive a zero (0) test grade for that test. Missed tests or quizzes are subject to a written (essay) test. If a student has a total of four (4) absences, there will be no makeup test given or offered.Attendance and Preparation:Students will be encouraged to treat the educational process like gainful employment with compensation being a comparable grade. Attendance is mandatory. Only an excused absence can be made up at a later time. If it is deemed that the student is abusing the use of excused absences, this privilege will be revoked. If you are unable to attend a class or will be late, please call me. The Community College of Philadelphia states that missing four (4) classes is worth two weeks of missed work. The student SHOULD DROP from this course at that time. Roll will be taken every day at the start of class time. Absences will be marked as 20 points off of the student’s attendance grade. This equates to about 1 point off your final grade. Lateness means, coming into class after it has started. If you are
