By doing a Google search on the internet on can find pdf versions of ase study guides.  These ase certification study guides or books include free diesel study guides, the c1 study guide as a pdf document, the x1 study guide, the brake test prep manual, the x1 practice test, and the l1 study guide.  Motor Age ASE study guide pfd versions found in Google searches are usually old bootlegged copies and should be avoided.  The actual Motor Age manuals we sell are current editions and can be used today for ase certification testing purposes.  The ASE test questions are up to date. 

An automotive technician can become an ASE master technician by studying for and taking all 9 ASE tests.  We also sell ase test prep books from Delmar.  These ase study guide questions, answers and task list are very similar to those found in the Motor Age ase prep test books.   Both Delmar & Motor Age sell master ase certification prep books in English and en español.  Both manuals have sample tests in the study guide.  ASE study guide / textbook (2 volume sets) called "Today's Technician" manuals are an ase test preparation book bundled with a Cengage / Delmar shop textbook. 

Delmar offers online ASE study book subscriptions that we sell on our website.  ASE online testing is offered at the test center where you take your test.  The test is administered over the internet in accordance with ASE.com guidelines.  ASE offers free mini ase test question manuals on their website at www.ASE.com.  However, these manuals are usually not enough to prepare you thoroughly for the ase certification exams. ASE also administers Collision testing.  For example, a Mercedes collision center could purchase a Delmar ase prep collision manual to study for the test.  These collision training manuals also include practice tests, test answers and a section on how to pass the ase test.
