Have any of you downloaded any of the Factory Service Manual's from ************?? If so, why's it download as an execute application file?? Call me paranoid, but i've a friend that fell for it once and got a virus. Any of you download from there? I read about the website in a thread.

 

i copped it on CD off of ebay. the buy it now was $0.01.....one cent!
i had to pay shipping tho

 

Yes i have. Several in fact, and there nothing wrong with them.

 

I've downloaded 3 FSMs from phatg20. The executable files are just self-unzipping archives. They put PDF files of the FSM pages in whatever folder you specify.

 

I got FSMs for 00-03s from there... no issues whatsoever with the .exe files...

 

Sweet! Thanks! My project for today? I'm gonna revive my baby. I got the SES bad O2 sensor code a couple of weeks ago. On top of changing that, I decided that I might as well change the coils because my gpm had been pretty crappy for awhile now and she'd been idling kinda rough. Spark plugs might as well get changed too since i'm changing coils and i'm at nearly 88,000. My top end on the highway hasn't been as lively as it used to be either, soooo i'm changing the MAF too. She's getting all new parts at a discount compliments of DaveB, whom i'm sure you've all heard of. And I learned about it all thanks to this site. You guys rule man. Thanks for all the help!

 

It works just fine, he's a trusted member. Sh*t, man, do a friggin virus check on it if you are that paranoid... but it is a lifesaver to have the ESM!!!

 

i have been meaning to ask if you had one. i have one for a 00 but need an 02 one now.
you need to burn that on to a CD for me
