4.0 out of 5 stars The 914 Haynes guide is second only to the factory guides!, March 15, 1997

By A Customer

This review is from: Porsche 914 (4-cyl.) Automotive Repair Manuel, 1969-1976 (Haynes Manuals) (Paperback)

If you own a 4 cylinder Porsche 914 and wish to perform much of the required maintenance yourself, this book is a "must have."

Second only to the factory maintenance guides, the Haynes guide provides a thorough guide for ALL 6 model years and offers a fairly complete troubleshooting guide. Some of the standard Haynes problems exists (i.e.: "Reinstallation is the reverse of removal" and mislabelled photos), but the majority of these can be figured out by simply examining what you are trying to accomplish first hand instead of depending on the book too heavily. I recommend this guide to ALL 914 owners that visit the 914 Fan Web Page (http://www.estinc.com/porsche/).

5.0 out of 5 stars What every 914 owner should have, March 6, 2001

This review is from: Porsche 914 (4-cyl.) Automotive Repair Manuel, 1969-1976 (Haynes Manuals) (Paperback)

This is not only more technical then any other 914 book I've seen but much cheaper also. If you own a 914 and even think about working on it, this is the best thing to have, unless you want to shell out over 400 bucks for the 8 volume factory manuals. The only problem I had was that I am a complete idiot when it comes to working on cars, and some of the steps didnt have pictures to refer to so I didnt really know what I was doing in some cases. But you get through it (using common logic)and this book it the BEST! ESPECIALLY for the price! 914 owners this is a must.

Of course you have to have this manual. This manual is really going to help the 914 owner. A terrific trouble shooting guide. All Haynes manuals are a must for the owners of the car highlighted. All 914 owners should buy this one.
