TomoHawk Posted July 11, 2002 Share Posted July 11, 2002 Who's got good manuals on the repair of the car? I have a Haynes book, but it doesn't give enough info to repair things like: backup lights interior lights Even the owner's manual I got with the car doesn't correctly tell you where the air cleaner is.

Kevin Shasteen Posted July 12, 2002 Share Posted July 12, 2002 For that specific reason when I purchase an older car that I know I'll be keeping for a while; or that I know I will be modifying, I always buy multiple manuals. I always search for a Factory Service Manual; no matter how hard it is to find I will always keep searching till I find one. Someone has it & doesnt need it anymore; it is just a matter of finding that person and making them an offer. I also will purchase a Mitchell, Haynes & Chilton manual. This approach allows me to be pre-prepared for just about any possibility. If you need a Factory Datsun Manual; you can go to any Nissan Dealer & order your year manual on CD. That is of course you dont find your answer on this board: even if you do get your answer, I would still purchase the appropriate manuals.

He doesn't even SELL repair manuals! But he did give a number to call. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TomoHawk Posted August 9, 2002 Author Share Posted August 9, 2002 There is a local (publishing) company that can get you areprint of the manual for $75. They send the job to a local printing place where it gets printed and bound. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phantom Posted August 10, 2002 Share Posted August 10, 2002 Contact Courtesy Nissan in Irving, TX. They can get the FSM's on CD. If I remember when I'm at work Monday I'll look up the address & phone number of the company that sells hard copies of the FSM's. I got one from them for my '77 which will be VERY similar to a '78. E-mail me directly at: BillD@Poly-America.com and I'll send you the info. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
