Nobody needs a Haynes manual. You are much better off buying a factory
manual, used if need be to save cost.

No, you don't need a Haynes manual. You need a factory service
manual.

The only thing a Haynes manual (or Chilton for that matter) is good for
is for wiping your hands off after your completed the job correctly when
using the Factory Service Manual.

Yes, more expensive, but worth the cost, as both Haynes and Chilton
are chock full off errors and incomplete directions.

No, you don't need a Haynes manual for the following. You need a FACTORY
service manual for the following. Haynes manuals are worse than worthless.

This should be included with every Haynes manual sold:

thank you (Matt, Joe, Mike, and Daniel (also for the link on the
instructions) ...

i have the fsm -- i need something simpler (that explains more simply) as an
adjunct to the fsm.
(please do NOT tell me i should not be working on a car if i cannot
understand the fsm or similar
any suggestions (relating to a book) would be very much appreciated
thanks in advance!
