Offers do-it-yourselfers of all levels TOTAL maintenance, service and repair information in an easy-to-use format. These manuals feature exciting graphics, photos, charts and exploded-view illustrations. Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Worthless manualHow do I dislike thee? Let me count the ways ... - Which picture is it that relates to the instruction I just read? - And in that murky photo, which one of the shadowy images is the part taht I need to replace or adjust? - Some parts just aren't acknowledged to exist (Try to find any mention of the throttle presure cable for an '88 auto trans. Then try to find any mention of how it should be adjusted.) - Some repairs reference two systems (If you need to repair the AAP; is that ... Read More Rating: - Very Bad Book for Ordinary Car User.My level: a Berkeley Graduate Student(IQ not bad), NEVER repair car before. I need to turn up the "idle speed" of my 88 Corolla, so go to book store to browse this book. 1. the book print in Black and White, autual photos are really in bad quality: especially for the engine parts: half of one picture is black, How the user tell what is what!! 2. for the drawing pictures only focus in detail parts, Not show where this part locate! If I can not locate the part, how can I adjust the parts, let along disassemble ... Read More Rating:  - Helpful for the priceI own both the Haynes and the Chilton books. I need one to fill in the blanks left by the other. If I had to use just one, it would probably be the Haynes. The Chilton would still be fine for most shadetree work. Neither have complete or even adequate wiring diagrams or in-depth info for transmissions,A/C,or troubleshooting. Haynes has the best photos and Chilton has an excellent write-up on vehicle emissions. Rating: - Don't waste your money.I have never before seen such a worthless repair manual. It has cost me valuable time on more than one occassion when I have attempted to find parts that didn't exist or were in the wrong location. The authors apparenlty never checked to see the differences in corollas between 88 and 97. I promise you that if you own a 93 corolla (as I do) this manual will provide you with more frustration than guidance. Browse for similar items by category:
