Just a reminder to those who have missed out, there are several sites on the web that have FREE downloads of the factory service manual. One site is http://www.fc3s.org/ by Dave Gibson. The other site is http://www.iluvmyrx7.com You can save it to disk or download it or whatever. Fairly good graphics. Fairly good schematics. It'll get you in the ballpark if your car is just a couple of years either side of 88. Straight forward in setting timing, checking 88 and under tps, torque values, instructions on a rebuild and a section hidden in the middle telling you where to put you 401K funds during a recession.

 

Just in case there is somebody new to this site since I first wrote this thread, I thought I'd BUMP it to the top so someone can check out the free manuals that cost big bucks if you purchase them on the market.

 

the 89 one is up at fc3s.org now too so all years are covered.

 

Scott, thank you so very much for your time and effort into getting the 89 FSM up.

And a big thanks to everyone else who posted a FSM at either of those sites.

 

awesome,

thanks
Justin

 

Just in case someone does not know, I'm posting this once again. Bump to the top.

 

post *****

 

ooh

thanks!

hehe
I didn't know.

 

NOT A POST *****. Maybe a prostitute, but not a *****. A ***** gives it away free. I've got the idea that there are just a bunch of people that don't know they can get it on line, and for free. Just too many questions that you know if they had the book, they wouldn't ask the questions. Not that theres anything wrong with asking questions. So I think I'll bump this thread once every couple of weeks.

 

Its too hard to use the online one when you are out in your garage trying to fix something. Running back and forth. And its too much to print. Id just rather buy one

 

What you do is, download the thing to disk and print it out on paper. Then take it to the garage. Leave it on disk in case you mess up the paper copy.

 

but it is printing it out that is the hassel.
especially with a slow printer like mine

 

but is it a $150 hassle?

 

I've seen em going for like $50 on ebay before.
No way would I pay $150, thats outrageous. Id just walk back and forth to my comp screen for that much

 

free is GOOD
