1988 Truck & 4runner FSM OCR

Hi all, not sure why these manuals aren't easier to come by, but I was able to find the original scanned doc for 1988 truck & 4runner hosted on a site through the way back machine. The original is just all the scans of the pages blasted into a PDF. Not ideal for navigating and searching.

So, I took the liberty of applying ClearScan OCR and saving out a new text converted file.

The file is a searchable 37mb PDF down from 160mb. It still includes all images and diagrams- the text has just been converted into font text instead of unsearchable bitmap stuff. It looks exactly the same AFAIK (sorry I didn't go through the whole dang thing to check for accuracy of the conversion, it is just shy of 1500 pages)

It's been super helpful to me because now I can just search by page title or keyword. Figured I would share. PM me if you would like me to send it to you

Jenny

p.s. I'm sorry mods if this is against the rules, I don't wanna ruffle anyone's feathers Figured it would be okay as long as I don't just post a link to it. But if that would be okay, I would prefer doing that so please let it know!

Information is useless to me if I can't "ctrl+f" it!
I'm in for a copy before the FSM police raid Yotatech's severs!
