Hey mikey 0166! I just did a quick search on-line. I wish I could have every repair manual!

I know they're pricey, about $40.00, but most manufactures will sell us, the general public, the Manual, specified just for your year and make of vehicle. I know some mechanics that have them on their shelves. With the price we pay for a new vehicle these days, I'd rather have one, than have floor mats anyday!! HEE HEE!

I keep going to library book sales and picking up the out-date editions on the older trucks. I just got a Chilton's 1961-1971 truck repair manual for 75 cents! I HAD to get it!!
Talk to you guys later....

For '92-up trucks, you can get a CD off eBay for ~$10 delivered to your door. They're actually applicable to older truck, so if you have an '84-91 EFI, I still recommend getting the '92 Truck & Van CD. Even if you have an older carbed truck, it's still a good investment.
