Fix-it Manual?

Easy question. Doing a search for 'manuals' was a bit much though.

Is there a DIY fixit book available for Gwagens? You know, like Haynes Automotive Repair or the other one; forget their name.

What about just a regular owner's manual for an '86 280GE?

Re: Fix-it Manual?

This is probably the only 3rd party book available.
It is NOT recommended, cheap, cumbersome layout, few pictures, major issues omitted, details missing, main technical points are wrapped in between a lot of text in the wrong order.

You have to leave a space between the beginning and the end of the link and its neighbors. I edited yours simply by dropping it down a line with the enter key; and it needs to start with "http://".

Re: Fix-it Manual?

Hey thanks Dutch. I will do that next time. I'm a bit slow on the uptake with some of this but I'm glad the link works now.

I like the George Carlin quote in your signature. Excellent in fact.

Cheers,
