you can get the maintence tips from http://www.partsamerica.com/ and they'll have some tips on maintence like oil changes, belt changes, and the easier things to do. But for bigger things you'll want to pick up a manual at your local autostore like, Shucks, Checker, or Napa and find the manual for your specific car and it'll have information on how to do information on almost everything you can on your car or truck...

don't do it I have noticed once you start doing these kind of things, you end up doing them all your life. Get a good job and let someone else do this kind of work. The days of the shade tree mechanic is rapidly coming to an end.

Your best bet is to enroll in a home study program. Check out www.pennfoster.edu for more information.
