2.0 out of 5 stars Very detailed, yet not very detailed., September 15, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: Cadillac 1967-89 (Chilton Book Company Repair Manual) (Paperback)

I had a problem with the idle speed on my car, so I bought this book to fix this problem myself. This book was very detailed to help me find my problem. My problem was electrical in nature, and this book instructed me how to do a self-diagnostic. I performed a self-diagnostic and found out the particlular electrical code which was causing my problems. Good. But this book did not tell me which part needed to be replaced in order to fix the problem. I assumed I had to replace the ECM, so I looked it up, and this book told me how to fix and replace everything related to the fuel system except how to replace the ECM. So, now I'm back to square one. In trying to learn more about the electrical workings of the car, I tried to read about all the different systems which proved to be a difficult task because this book scatters information about particular elecrical systems throughout various sections of various chapters making the learning of these electrical systems a task as difficult as fixing most problems on my car.

My elderly dad just gave me his 1975 Eldorado, but he wouldn't give up his Chilton's Repair Manual for me to have! I had to buy my own and was pleased to find it available at Amazon.com. It's an easy to understand manual even for a woman with not much knowledge about her new (old) car, but I'm learning!

With all of the fraud and mis-representation that occurs over the internet these days, it was difficult to believe that I would receive a product that would be worthy of great merit. The Repair Manual that I received was not only in excellent condition, but was just what I wanted. Thank you for selling credible and reliable products with such a fine company as Amazon.
