Isn't Autozone the Haynes manual type thing? I think he meant the full shop manual, which if he is, they can be downloaded for free across the intraweb.

Wow.
That's absolutely useless.
I dont remember a CD having a few hundred pages and words and pictures on it, but......

If your gonna be stupid like our friend above, download them FOR FREE, don't pay some dumbass for one of those CD's........but in case you didnt catch my sarcasm, it's pretty ****** useless to have a digital manual unless you have a LapTop or you wanna run back n forth every 10secs. between garage and comp

What, the cd's I have are straight from the dealership. I have about 20 Honda Cars on record, and they are about 2,000 pages long.

That was intended for me ? How do you think Honda does it, do you really think there techs are going to break out the 2,000 page manual, we never did, we went up to the service desk or writer and asked them to print out so and so page, and taped it to the tool box. Nothing wrong with printing the page you need.

No Joke, Technology is your friend holmes..
I print out the pages I need and just
trash them when I am done..

Supposebly if you get a Helms these days,
they just "zerox" them anyway
and don't include the electrical schematics
which is the most inportant info in them.

Go crx Go ...that's a good idea..

Do you print out the money to buy the incrdible amounts of ink and paper used?

That **** is too expensive to be printin off just for one time use.

Now, I will say that Haynes manuals suck *****.
They do included all the schematics n whatnot, but they definitely suck *****.

I'm all for digital mnanuals, especially sincwe their free (thanks HondaHookup!) but I would be one of the people runnin in and out up a flight of stairs each time, to check things out, I have no printer

OMG! who told you?
Actually,I just make extra copies
of my paycheck cause I keep running out of green ink.

But seriously..
If you are doing something messy like checking valve clearance,
engine assembly etc..
It is cheap insurance to help keep your manual clean and
You can save them on a clipboard/folder and reuse them
until they are too dirty to read..

True, that's what we did at Tong Da.

Either way, if your gonna invest a bunch of money in your car, invest $20 in a actual manual you can take to the car with you

All the other manuals are no good, and the helmsinc can cost up to $70.
