haynes 3450

I went to 2 libraries and tried several books. Also the mitchell database for technicians. This haynes UK version has data the others do not. Specifically , the parameters for ECT sensor(coolant sensor). and ignition data for tsz vs. ezl systems. Also 2.3 MT clutch info as well as driveshaft pics to help where language and familiarity was a problem. The US version leaves info out and is frustrating but it has its own merits as well. Especially how wiring of systems relate or share space. A newbie needs both. They are free to read. I just had to borrow a copy from back east and wait for inter library loan. After seven books, i would buy these two haynes first. The car sat for years with every owner its had because the data is hard to find and bad copies were made. Illegible star tek sheets and expensive cd roms kept this car off the road. Unnecessary vacuum lines were leaking. The UK book had pics!!!
