Manual?
I've noticed that a surprising number of the questions asked here could be answered simply by looking the the manual. I was just thinking that if you own a vehical, you should own a manual for it, right? 
Oh well, Just a thought...Ive always had a manual for everything I have, starting way back when with my dirtbikes. Plus I figure even if you get rid of the vehical, you can keep the manual and help other people, or let the manual go with the car!

You owe it to yourself (And your car if it's not a complete POS to begin with) to own at least the factory owners manual. If you intend to do any wrenching on it, a good repair manual is worth it's weight in gold. (Maybe that's why the dealership fu-, um, sells us a Mazda manual for $100 or so)
Now, thanks to the miracle of the Internet, even those who can't aford the highway robbery, er, *premium* prices for factory manuals can download PDFs and still have something better than those stupid damned Haynes manuals. (Which are still FAR superior to the "Try to figger out what that doo-dad on th' farwall is fer" approach)
