5.0 out of 5 stars
Maintenance Manual,
This review is from: Mazda 323, MX-3, 626, Millenia, and Protege, 1990-98 (Chilton's Total Car Care Repair Manuals) (Paperback)
This book is an excellent resource for the semi-mechanically inclined. With well organized tables, step by step instructions and pictures for every maintenance task. The table of contents is well laid out with an index at the beginning of every chapter to get you directly to the project you need. The troubleshooting section is very descriptive, laid out in a table that makes it easy to get right to the problem. Having this book has not only enabled me to test and repair problems with my car, saving me money, but allowed me to read about those tasks that I did not have the time to fix myself so I when I had to talk to the mechanic I was sure that I was getting what I was paying for.

Looks ok but dosn't really help,
By Erik A Cook (Bothell, Wa United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Mazda 323, MX-3, 626, Millenia, and Protege, 1990-98 (Chilton's Total Car Care Repair Manuals) (Paperback)
When you page through this book you notice all the great diagrams. It's not until use it that you realize none of the blow up diagrams have any parts labeled. The book has a lot of great procedures but most are not thorough enough and there is no general troubleshooting section to steer you in the right direction (other chiltons have this). For example, my Mazda lunged and quit working. I troubleshot a lot of systems before finding a weak spark. Then the only explanation for a weak spark in the book was the coil. I validated the coil did not meet their validation criteria and replaced it. But it did not work so I took it to the dealer. The dealer determined it was the distributor. The book had no validation or installation procedures for the distributor.

Chilton's Mazda Repair Manual No. 46802,
By Ian Polman (Annerley, Queensland Australia) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Mazda 323, MX-3, 626, Millenia, and Protege, 1990-98 (Chilton's Total Car Care Repair Manuals) (Paperback)
It is indeed a tough job to describe so many different models of Mazda vehicles in one book. While a lot of information is covered, I feel that too much space has been devoted to teaching the basics of how to do generic tasks. Not having seen any other Chilton's manuals, I don't know if this basic training appears in all manuals, but I beleive that the basics should be left out so that much more detail can be included about the specifics of the Mazda vehicles covered by the manual. The information included in Chapter 1 for example, should be in a General Mechanics book. Apart from that, I have found the manual helpful.
