Do not purchase this book if you drive a '95 thru '98 Mercury Cougar. This manual does not have information on the 3.8L V6 or the 4.6L V8. Nor does it have information on the respective car's transmissions. This book ONLY convers '99 and '00 Cougars. The book you're looking for is "JC WHITNEY - CHILTON REPAIR MANUAL FOR 83-96 THUNDERBIRD, COUGAR."

This book offers some very helpful insights for do-it-yourself car repair. The fuse and wiring diagrams are excellent, and the steps are easy to follow. I actually think this book is a much better value than the owner's manual I got with my 97 Contour. Some of the jobs in the book are not for beginners, however, and there is no list of the tools you will need before starting each job, but generally, this is a great book.

If you can't afford the Mercury factory service manuals, buy
the Chilton's guide and get some of your auto repairs done
yourself. It isn't an FSM - no Chilton's manual compares
to an FSM - but it's better on avergae than Haynes' guides and
it won't get you into deep water without ample warnings.

The manual was everything I needed. For a used book it seemed new. I was very Happy with the product I received. Thanks

Anyone familiar with Chilton's Manuals knows how reputable they are. This product was exactly what was expected. It was shipped in a reasonable amount of time and arrived in the exact condition (new & shrink-wrapped) the seller had advertised.

Book was in good condition.After I received the book I paid more for it on line than I could have bought it at your store. I paid 7.87 for it. It had a sticker price of 4.25 on front cover.
In the future I will think twice before I but anything on line from amazon.
