Rod's Enthuasiats Workshop Manual - Now Online

Google books now has the Rod's Mazda MX-5 1.8 Enthuasiast Workshop Manual
online.
Being online makes it hard to read under the car but it does make it
completley searchable which is really nice.

Good news! I wonder how they're dealing with copyrights...

I see some preview pages, but not the entire book, and not searchable.

it may not be completely intuitive but it most definitely there and totally
searchable.
to search, type something into the box on the left where the words "Search
in this book" appear...
ie. type the word "oil" in there and click "go" and a listing of pages that
include that word will appear. click on the page for the full detail.
alternatively, to view and page through the entire book click the word
"Overview" found on the left hand column and a summary along with five
images of various pages will appear. Click on the word "More" found under
the five page images and you get page images for each of the chapters.
Click on a given chapter page and you can then scroll through that chapter
page by page... hope that helps.
ps. They do have many other books with only a handful of pages for preview
to entice you to buy, but this one seems to be all there.

The whole book isn't there. Just try paging through it one page at a
time and you'll notice about 1/3 to 1/2 of the pages are missing. To
get the whole thing you must spend!

Apologies for the top post - just following Chris's lead.

Please don't, it just screws up the thread.

well i suppose my internet is better than your internet
it certainly works for me. used it to look up the charcoal canister tubing
question to try to help peter (see above thread)... searched and reviewed
each of the pages that were relevant and paged forward and back on each to
understand the context of each result. also used it to look up info about
hub replacement... very nice.

See if you can find pages 1:15, 1:16, 2:2, 2:3, 2:9, 2:10, 2:16, 2:17,
3:3, 3:4, etc, etc.. I sure can't! I'm thinking you got lucky on what
you were looking for.
