I failed my EA advanced emission technician exam. I am looking for a specific book to help me study, any suggestions?

Can you recommend any books or manuals out there that can help me pass my California EA smog technician exam. I took the computerized smog exam to get my advanced emissions technician license twice and failed both times.
Answer:

If you're looking for one book to study the entire content of state's smog technicians exam either (EA or BA), it doesn't exist. Getting a smog technician license would be way too easy that way. The only way is... You've got to study the categories/subjects one by one. ASE and alternates will have the proper study material for L1 (Advanced Engine Performance Diagnosis; this is the one you want to focus on), A8 and A6. Several manuals and study guides are available for these subjects in book stores, libraries and online. Prentice-Hall, Inc. probably makes the best study material and text books on soft back, hard back and CD-ROM.
