Any online "Haynes" type manuals? KP62

Postby Leon » Wed Sep 13, 2006 10:51 am

So, I've started attacking my latest toy with spanners.

First time spannering anything in a number of years, so I'm pretty much just making stuff up as I go along, and will rely quite heavily on hammers (I'm going to buy a bigger one).

If I can't get a big enough hammer, are there any online resources that will actually tell me how to do stuff on the mighty KP?

Quite honestly, I am sick of buying Haynes Manuals for cars that I get bored with in six months, so I don't really want to have to drop $55 or so on a nice shiny new Haynes, that will end up being given away when I sell the car.

The job I've started taking on this morning is the bottom arm / balljoint.

I'm just undoing everything in sight :)

I haven't found much as yet unfortunately, the best resource I've found thus far are some of the fellas on Club-K. :)

That said, I haven't needed much help, everything is so basic and simple on em!

Manuals show up occasionally on TM for not that much money.

What do you want a manual for? Pretty much all my Haynes one for the KE says is to hit it several times with progressively larger hammers :lol:
1988 KE70 Wagon - Slowly rusting
1990 NA6 MX-5 - because reasons
2018 Ranger - Because workcar
1997 FD3S RX-7 Type R - all brap, all the time
OMG so shiny!

And if the hammers don't work, soak it in CRC prior to choosing a bigger hammer.
