I bought this manual because it appears to be the only one that covers my '92 740 Turbo Wagon (short of the Volvo technical manuals). I have found it to be poorly orginaized, poorly illustrated, and poorly indexed. For example: information on the throttle body and idle adjustmemts are found in the section on Chassis Electrical and are NOT indexed at all. Key throttle linkage adjustments are in another area and will require a page by page review to find again. This information should be in the section on the fuel system. Many dozens of other examples could be cited. Haynes, a competitive publisher of automotive manuals, is missing a real opportunity here.

A 1 star rating is given because no 0 star rating is available.

The manual has very litte information concering the instalation and removal of the radio.The same can be said for the installation/removal of the water pump. I found it difficulat to find the capasities for the fluids. I would not recomend buying this book for any Volvo owners.

Could not find a 1995 960 repair manual. Some expert say that the 1993 (i.e. available) is the same. However, some say that the 1995 version will probably out within a year. Need help in this matter.. Thanks P.S. IT IS A 960 not 760

Anybody have info. on where I can purchase a book on this subject - one that is useful? Having read many of the reviews associated with a lot of the books listed doesn't look too promising! Thank you.
