Alldata

I use ALLDATA for the TSBs and the fact the updated with the latest stuff. I know it is more than buying a Chiltons or Haynes but IMHO it is worth the extra.

Buy nothing other than a factory service manual. Two volume set. I have an extra set, and would ship it for $55. Let me know if you are interested. The good thing is that they maintain a good resale value. Chilton- worthless, especially used. Haynes - a close second to worthless.

Aw. c'mon. What about if you run out of toilet paper?

You can also usually locate Ford DVDs on ebay or even download them for free if you know where to look (google can help you...)

I agree, there is nothing like the Ford service manuals published by Helm Inc.

Little too rough for me

I sometimes pick up a DVD, but often times, I like to have the printed pages to thumb back and forth. I also put sticky notes in the sections that I am using - net it the book can save time.
