Hey.

Do any of you 5th & 6th gen owners know if there is a helms manual for the 98 EX online somwhere? I just got my D16Y8, and I'm starting to rebuild it and get it all cleaned up and prepped, but a helms manual would definitely come in handy...

why not just post this in the 4th gen forum, i think youd get better response there. why not just buy a helms manual, its alot easier cause you can have it out there while you are working on your car instead of always coming into the house to look up torque numbers

because the last I heard it was over $100, so it's a lot cheaper to get it online. And anyways, after he finds what he needs, he can print it out and take it out while he's working on his car.

Yes, I know I can just buy one, but if I can find one online for free then why bother? I can just print it out at work...

The reason I didn't post this in the 4th gen forum is because the D16Y8 is NOT a 4th gen engine, so if anyone knows of an online helms, I figured this forum would be the best place to start (cuz you know that if I posted this in the 4g forum, they'd be like "why didn't you post this in the 92+ forum?!").

Haynes and Chilton are mad lame...

It's nice to have the actual bound book, and its not over $100, its only $60 or $70.

$70 is a lot of money for a fucking book that can be had for free. Dont try to tell me if there were two gas stations right next to each other, and one was cheaper, that you wouldnt go to the cheaper one. Pleeeeeeaassse

If you can afford to buy an engine, and you plan on doing any work on it, you must have one! I've never seen a Helm's manual online, probably because they are over 1000 pages.

$60 > not knowing how to do any work on your engine

actually, there IS a 88-91 CRX haynes manual you can access or download for FREE online.
