Loco Motion
The steam locomotive is a machine that has inspired imagination, innovation and invention from the time of its origination and continues to evoke passion in enthusiasts today. Here Michael R. Bailey expertly and in fascinating detail, describes the development of the steam locomotive during its pioneering first half-century until 1850 by exploring the surviving locomotives that may be seen in Britain, Europe, and North and South America. In addition to surviving relics, he also takes a look at operable replicas, which fill many gaps in international collections, to provide continuity in this evolutionary story.

BULTACO 125cc - 175cc - 200cc - 250cc - 325cc - 350cc - 360cc - 370cc SINGLES 1968-1979 WORKSHOP MANUAL
174 pages and profusely illustrated with more than 280 illustrations, diagrams and charts, size 8.250 x 10.750 inches.Originally published by Floyd Clymer in 1969 with coverage for the 1969 and earlier 5-speed and 6-speed 125cc, 175cc, 200cc, and 250cc models. However, as some of the models that utilized these engines remained in production through 1979, the original Clymer manual provided coverage far beyond its publication date. While this 2025 edition includes all of the data from the original publication, it has also been expanded to include data for the 325cc, 350cc, 360cc and 370cc engines, which effectively extends the coverage through 1979. While all of these various engines were used in multiple different Bultaco motorcycles, specific 5-speed and 6-speed models covered in this manual are as follows: 125cc - Astro, Lobito, Pursang & Sherpa T175cc - Campera, Lobito & Sherpa S200cc - Sherpa S250cc - Alpina, El Tigre, Frontera, Matador, Metralia, Pursang & Sherpa T350cc - Alpina & Sherpa T360cc - Pursang370cc - FronteraHowever, this manual will also be of use to owners of older models with 4-speed transmissions.We encourage you to exercise caution when purchasing technical publications for your classic motorcycle or automobile as many of the reprints found on internet websites are from 'bedroom sellers' at enticingly low prices by individuals that really have no idea what they are selling. Many are nothing more than poor quality, digital comb-bound or ring-bound photocopies that are scanned or printed complete with greasy pages and thumbprints and, as such, are deceptively described as 'pre-owned', 'used', or even 'refurbished'. In addition, they are often advertised for the incorrect series and/or model years. However, VelocePress.com has been publishing reprints of motorcycle and automobile manuals since 2003 and our publications have earned excellent reviews worldwide so you can be assured you are purchasing a quality product.

Yamaha: The New Dawn
In the 1960s, Yamaha transitioned from instruments to motorcycle racing, quickly dominating with their innovative two-stroke engines and riders.In the early 1960s, Japanese firm Yamaha, previously known as a musical instrument maker, took their first faltering steps into the arena of top flight motorcycle racing. They were comparative latecomers in this world, but soon made stars of riders like Phil Read and Bill Ivy. Their two-stroke engines developed quickly, and within a few short years they were challenging rivals Honda for the top places in the world's most prestigious race, the Isle of Man TT. By the early 1970s, Yamaha had emerged from the shadow of their competitors to dominate Grand Prix motorcycle sport with their TZ models. More than this though, Yamaha democratised racing by building a machine that was both capable of winning, and also within the reach of any aspiring motorcycle racer. The engine was so versatile - and so effective - that it even lent itself to powering three wheeled machines, and a clutch of sidecar World Championships also fell to Yamaha as a result. The biggest names of the decade - Grant, Mortimer, Williams, O'Dell and Taylor - wrote their names in the TT history books under the Yamaha banner.

Take an exhilarating ride through Jaguar production history, from the original SS to the I-PACE EV, with narratives, photos, and spec tables for each. In 1935, a pair of motorcycle enthusiasts in Coventry, England--William Lyons and William Walmsley--established a firm called the Swallow Sidecar Company. Soon, they pivoted to automobiles, launching a sporting saloon (i.e., sedan) called the Jaguar SS. The decision set in motion the company that would create Britain's most beloved line of high-performance automobiles. The Complete Book of Jaguar, 2nd Edition tells the whole story with: A thorough profile for every production model, presented in chronological orderSpec tables highlighting key technical and performance specifications and their changes across each modelNarratives by distinguished motoring historian Nigel Thorley discussing the innovations and technology featured in each modelColor photography of new and restored examplesHistorical black-and-white imageryA new chapter covering Jaguar's commitment to an alt-fuel future with extensive up-to-date coverage of the hybrid E-PACE and F-PACE SUVs and the I-PACE EVAs you turn the pages, follow Jaguar's trajectory to becoming one of the world's most celebrated automakers. In England's bleak postwar years, the company was a shining star--first with its XK120, followed by the XK140 and XK150. Sporting sedans like the Mark 2 and Mark X set the bar for luxury four-door transport in the '50s and '60s. Then Jaguar stunned the world in 1961 with the achingly beautiful E-Type, a genuine 150 mph sports car. Though Jaguar lost its way periodically in the modern era, it has bounded back stronger than ever in the twenty-first century with a strong lineup that includes the new F-Type sports car. The Complete Book of Jaguar, 2nd Edition is the essential and most current guide to one of the truly iconic marques in the history of sports and luxury automobiles.

Jeep 4.0 Engines
The photos in this book are black and white.The venerable Jeep 4.0L in-line 6 engine has powered millions of Jeeps, including CJs, Wranglers, Cherokees, and Wagoneers. The 4.0 delivers adequate horsepower from the factory, but many off-road drivers want more horsepower and torque to conquer challenging terrain, which means these engines are often built and modified. The Jeep 4.0, or 242-ci, is affordable, abundant, exceptionally durable, and many consider it one of the best 4x4 off-road engines. In this Workbench title, veteran author and Chrysler/Jeep engine expert Larry Shepard covers the rebuild of an entire engine in exceptional detail. He also delves into popular high-performance modifications and build-ups. Step-by-step photos and captions cover each crucial step of the engine disassembly. He shows the inspection of all critical parts, including block, heads, rotating assembly, intake, and exhaust. Critical machining processes are covered, including decking the block, line boring, and overboring the block. The book provides exceptional detail during the step-by-step assembly so your engine is strong and reliable. Installing a larger-displacement rotating assembly (or stroker package) is one of the most cost-effective ways to increase performance, and the author covers a stroker package installation in detail. With millions of Jeep 4.0 engines in the marketplace (which are subjected to extreme use), many of these engines require a rebuild. In addition, many owners want to extract more torque and horsepower from their 4.0 engines so these engine are also modified. Until now, there has not been a complete and authoritative guide that covers the engine rebuild and build-up process from beginning to end. Jeep 4.0 Engines is the essential guide for an at-home mechanic to perform a professional-caliber rebuild or a high-performance build-up.
Cameron's Engines
In this second volume the support crew present more stories about 60009 Union of South Africa and also John Cameron's second locomotive, 61994 The Great Marquess, which he acquired in 2003. This much smaller locomotive could go to places barred to 60009, such as the West Highland line, the line it was built for. It has also run on many heritage lines, where it has proved very popular. As before, the ups and downs of main-line running are included, as well as fascinating anecdotes and memories. Richly illustrated with more previously unpublished images, this book provides a wonderful insight to this marvellous hobby, something that has ended now that both locomotives are safely resting in John Cameron's Museum.
Designing and Tuning High-Performance Fuel Injection Systems
This is a print on demand (POD) book with color photos. The paper and photo quality in this book, although good, often does not match the original version but the information remains the same.So you've decided that fuel injection is for you, but want to know more. Many questions surround what appears to many as more of a black art than science. Engine tuning used to be the hallowed ground of vehicle engineers and cutting-edge hot rodders. For years, the carburetor filled the needs of enthusiasts and provided simple adjustments at the end of a flat-bladed screwdriver. But today, electronic controls for engines are the norm. Even the casual enthusiast who actually drives his favorite hot rod on the streets can easily see the benefit of increased precision when he fires the car up for the first time each spring. A properly tuned EFI system rarely needs anything more than the turn of the key to come to life. Following up his best-selling title, Engine Management: Advanced Tuning, author Greg Banish goes in-depth on the combustion basics of fuel injection as well as benefits and limitations of standalone. Learn useful formulas, VE equation and airflow estimation, and more. Also covered are setups and calibration, creating VE tables, creating timing maps, auxiliary output controls, start to finish calibration examples with screen shots to document the process. Useful appendixes include glossary and a special resources guide with standalone manufacturers and test equipment manufacturers. Aftermarket standalone systems are a great way to dial in performance and reliability. Designing and Tuning High-Performance Fuel-Injection Systems is the book you need to become an expert in this popular modification.
