For automotive repair the 3 best resources I've found are youtube, buying a Haynes repair manual, and the ALLDATA website. Youtube has videos for doing most things on your car/truck, a Haynes repair manual walks you through a ton of basic to advanced procedures (it pays for itself), and repair shops use ALLDATA. It's more advanced and a bit less intuitive but a great resource. I get it free through my local library which is great too!
