Recently i was in autozone and noticed that they had a haynes manual for the max.....there were two manuals....85-92 and 93-95 (i think)!! Which one are we suppose to get, neither one has our body style on the front, the 93-95 has a 4th gen on the front while the 85-92 has a 2nd gen!! Help would be greatly appreciated!!

 

which one should i get for a 92 SE. the one i have, doesn't have any pictures of my engine in it!!

 

its the 85 to 92 for the vg's the book should be orangish in color.

 

I have both Haynes Books and niether has "VE specific" info, rumor is that chiltons does. Oh and Maxdout92SE I would grab the 85-92 if I had to pick. I saw a FSM on E-BAY the other day for like $30

 

I had this problem also. neither haynes manual is good for you. So i went to strauss auto and i bought the chiltons manuals. it is very halpful it is is the right one. it has a 3rd gen. right on the cover, its blue. its made by haynes anyways and they say the chiltons book is better then the haynes. i dunno but the chilton is the one for us.
good luck

 

Ya, i have a chilton's manual for the 89-92 max. it has both engines in it and pics and diagrams of both engines...helped me out alot. i picked mine up on ebay for $5.00 plus shipping. just do a search mine was brand new. they have them on all the time for $5-$10 plus shipping.

 

i went ahead and purchased the hayne's manual with the VG engine in it.....couldn't figure out how to compress the pistons in the rear calipers....never thought of turning them clockwise, but i'm going to ebay right now!!! PRECIATE IT FELLAS!!

 

Aren't they ~$10 at WalMart? Chilton's manual I mean. I got mine years ago from there. Ebay's great for many things, but why wait when your local mart's there...

 

Yeah, get the Chiltons if you have a VE, I have both and the Haynes has nothing about the VE. Better yet get a factory service manual.

 

i dunno about AutoZone, i was there few weeks ago and i was talkin to my friend who was with me about Armor All and the guy who worked there said "Armor all sucks, leaves your dash all cracked and dry" meanwhile ive been using armor all for like 10 years now with perfect results

 

how much is tha FSM?

 

I've heard the same things about Armor All but have no proof. Although, I also heard not to use Windex on your tint: there's amonia in it that will destroy the tint after prolonged used. I suppose if you over use anything or use it improperly, it could do harm. Look at crack or even viagra for example.

 

I have the Haynes manual for my 93 GXE - VG engine, same as yours.

I got it from autozone for about $15 - its helpful for small things.

I got an awesome deal with that 94 FSM though - $45!

If you need to take a look at it, let me know I can hook u up!
