Default Service manuals...By popular demand...

Last winter the heater core in my old Taurus went out and in my search for info on repairing it myself I found a great resource website that I totally forgot to share with you guys.

http://www.bedlib.org/ebsco.html

We're clicking on the blue and green ARRC icon...

On this site there is information including repair procedures, service bulletins, wiring diagrams, labour calculator and other good stuff. Best of all it has all that info for almost any car out there from the 60's right up till now!

I can't believe i didnt share this earlier!

Have fun with this one guys. It's definitely a bookmarker! Helped me out a whole lot.

NOTE: for the '90 - '92 LS, we need to go to the '93 listing for the repair procedures...

PS: I just copied the post i made at LOC...


THIS LINK ALSO WILL TAKE YOU THERE WITHOUT REQUESTING PASSWORD.

Auto Repair Reference Center link at the bottom.

This is quoted from the website:

If you see a login screen when trying to connect to the Auto Repair Reference Center (AARC),
you may be behind a firewall.

As many of our customers need to allow access through firewalls, proxies, filtering software and other security features, we have a list of URLs that your network will need to have full access to, in order to use EBSCOhost to its fullest extent. This is called an exception list by many companies that produce these security applications. Please add the following addresses to their exception list:

ebsco.e-toolbox.com
www.e-toolbox.com
aarc.epnet.com

Has anyone tried this recently? I have copied all of the sites that need to be on the exception list, and put them in the exception list. Is there anything I am doing wrong? Even when I move the cursor over the link, before I press it, the html page is a "login" page. Help! I would love this resource!

thanks,
jeremy
