What manual to get.

I just bought a Haynes Repair manual #38010. Is this the manual I need for my car..

Buick Regal (1988 thru 2005)
Chevrolet Lumina (1990 thru 1994)
Olds Cutlass Supreme (1988 thru 1997)
Pontiac Grand Prix (1988 thru 1999)

It doesnt seem to say much about superchargers. and isnt mine series III? Beause it only seems to talk about series II. My car is sitting in the Auto Zone lot so I cant go look.

If it does not fit your car pitch it back.
Haynes and Chiltion manuals are just fit all manuals.
The best manuals are factory repair manuals.
And here is another good professional one.

24.95$ us plastic a year for online sub. Can be up and running in 10minutes.

The all data keeps you updated on all tsb and new repair procedures.
Well worth the money.

Re: What manual to get.

I have the GM FSM in hardcopy and on CD. You can get them from Helm, Inc although expensive. Also, many of us found good deals on EBay on the Grand Prix FSM manual set and from other GP owners.

The FSM has the best wiring diagrams and diagnostic procedures with DTC code and without for Engine, ABS and Chassis, and Supercharger maintenance, etc. The problem is wiring color coding varies among Grand Prix model years so get one specifically for your '98 model.

Re: What manual to get.

I bought a set online for my 1997 and paid $50 bucks for it a couple of months ago. I would wait and look for a cheaper one. They come up for sale all the time. Its your call though. They are the ultimate manual in my opinion.

That is the correct 3 volume set. Checkout Helm, Inc. Looks like they are getting rid of what they have in stock for 1998 models. $67.50?
