2.0 out of 5 stars GM Auto Repair Manual (1986-1995 Buick, Olds., Pontiac)
I often found the manual more frustrating than helpful. Pictures are numbered but the number is rarely used (see illustration rather than referring to the number). A popular engine during the time span designated was the GM 2.5 L OHV. No complete picture of the engine, only partial views in the manual.

This review is from: General Motors Buick Skylark (1986 thru 1995) Buick Somerset (1985 thru 1987) Oldsmobile Achieva (1992 thru 1995) Oldsmobile Calais (1985 thru 1991) Pontiac Grand Am (1985 thru 1995) Automotive Repair Manual (Haynes Automotive Repair Series) (Paperback)
I often found the manual more frustrating than helpful. Pictures are numbered but the number is rarely used (see illustration rather than referring to the number). A popular engine during the time span designated was the GM 2.5 L OHV. No complete picture of the engine, only partial views in the manual. The PCV valve explanation on page 1-25 is incomplete (see Chiltons). The organization of the manual could be better. A great manual for a GM mechanic but not for the back-yard mechanic. A good supplement to the Chilton's manual.
