85Sub4WD Posted August 28, 2006 Share Posted August 28, 2006 factory service manuals (FSM's) (found on ebay, or in the marketplace here) are the best (lotsa pics and diagrams) - though haynes manuals are pretty good too - Im not a fan of chilton's, as they are vague Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GL-10 Turbo Posted August 28, 2006 Share Posted August 28, 2006 factory service manuals (FSM's) (found on ebay, or in the marketplace here) are the best (lotsa pics and diagrams) - though haynes manuals are pretty good too - Im not a fan of chilton's, as they are vague Chilton's are for those who like to practice...do the same job again and again, and again... :mad: (two thumbs DOWN) They're not only vague, they also ensure that the S.T.M. doesn't realize that they're full of bull, and follows their instructions word for word. The result is doing the job over again... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
idosubaru Posted August 28, 2006 Share Posted August 28, 2006 better to worse: FSM, Haynes, Chiltons and there's a How to make your Subaru last or something...i forget exactly what it's called but i've never seen one, though i've seen a few pages. in reality the FSM is the way to go. keep your eye out here (post a wanted add) and on ebay, get them cheap. well worth it.
