I just got my max about 1 month ago a 99 gle fully loaded blah blah blah.. for 12,000. with 80k miles. I've been reading on the form for about 2 months and I'm boggled with some of the complexity which goes into messing with my max.

I really want to learn about ripping apart cars in general but don't know exactly where to start.

Any expert advice will be greatly appreciated!

I'm sorry but I cant really help you with out a specific question/idea? what would you like to try to do? anything from changing a headlight build to a transmission swap.... the possibilities are endless.

 

mostly about how the whole engine works and how everything comes together...

 

go to autozone and buy a haynes(spell?) manual

If you don't know much cars, I wouldn't go tinkering around on my own. If you have any friends or family that know more, it helps to learn somethings off them. Otherwise, the other alternative would be to take a basic auto class if they offer it at your local college or tech schools.

 

Especially the internal combustion engine writeup:

air goes in to engine, air mixes with fuel, pistons compress mixture, spark ingites it, piston forced downward to crate a cycle blah blah blah engine is connected in to the tranny, tranny makes car move and brakes stop car... a little more in there but you can figure that out
