Difference b/w Factory Service & Workshop Manuals for FD
I just bought an FD. I now need THE BEST repair manual out there. What is the difference between the factory service manual & the workshop manual? Is there one manual that is the best?

I think it's just different names for the same thing. There are 2 versions - the "small" book and the "big" dealer copy. The dealer copy books are loose-leaf in a giant 3-ring binder - the small book is a typical perfect-bound book, about the size of one of those mini phone books.
The small book has the body electrical troubleshooting guide built into it, and it's a separate book for the large dealer copy. The small book also has the wiring diagram in it.
I'd just get the small book - it's like $70-80, and you're good to go. I actually prefer the small one over the large one - easier to lug around the car and look stuff up. I have a small '93 book and a full '95 dealer shop manual (as well as various FC shop manuals).

Mitchel does however have a "manual" I used it for AC troubleshooting. Its decent. It is also on the iluvmyrx7 site.
