The HSU Educational Foundation has partnered with Step One Automotive Group to offer a Small Engine Basic Repair course at the HSU Innovation Institute South in Fort Walton Beach. 

  • This course is designed for middle and high school students who will be able to take apart a small engine, put it back together, and start it.

The “Small Engine Basics Repair” course will be four weeks long, for a total of 16 hours, and will be led by a Step One Automotive Senior Master Mechanic. During the course, students will learn about basic parts of the engine, the tools needed, and techniques that can be applied to vehicle engine repair.
