Who makes the best tech manual?



Chilton's or Haynes's ?

Who makes the best AUTOMOTIVE REPAIR MANUAL FOR THE TAURUS PRIMITIVE PIECE OF CRAP EARTHLING DINOSAUR FUEL BURNING INNEFECIENT AUTOMOBILE YOU BLEEDING IDIOT.

ps >>> have a nice day ... :'>

I don't know about the Taurus, but I can say that my Mercury handbook from Haynes sucks. My Caprice handbook from Chilton on the other hand contains a lot of useful and correct information.

Bingo.

Chilton's it is.

Thanks

And a crapload of vacuum tubes, if I recall correctly. Highly illogical.

they have the manuals that the dealerships use.... but they dont try to teach you to be a mechanic... they are written for mechanics and expensive and you might need three books to cover all parts of the vehicle... back in 73 i got a set of books for a new ford grand torino.. cost me $75 for a box of books. and in 83 i got a bigger box of books for my new Mustang cost $200.... now they make one shop manual for a taurus/sable for $65 and you will need the electrical/vacuum troubleshooting book for $45 and the wiring diagram for about $15 and if you gonna get into the emissions stuff they also sell a book for $300, cant remember what they call it, but figured i needed it to troubleshoot the computer stuff in the car... i never got it as i figured out what to do with the current problem...

Sucks an absolute vacuum.

Easier to satisfy a common Earth Woman (approaching the impossible).
