FWIW, here is a link to a German outfit that sells (in English) a FSM for 1988 Pickups - http://www.repairloader.com/s.php?q=...p#.UZ4pzLXviSo It is a Pdf file that costs $14.95 through PayPal. I had previously found hard copies on eBay at a cost of $90 or so.

Felt like I put $75 in my pocket for a format (Pdf) that works better for me.

 

$90 is ridiculous. It's $66.75 brand new from Toyota. http://smg.toyotapartsandservice.com...&py=1988&pubno

Or you can download it FOR FREE in pdf form. http://web.archive.org/web/201011261...4runner_88.pdf

So why would anybody pay $14.95 for it?

Does it include the V6 supplement? Then I might...

 

Cuz I didn't know about the link that takes you to "The page cannot be found".

The manual I purchased doesn't have any supplement for the V-6.

 

No V6 supplement, no deal.

I can't figure out WTF the deal is with that link right now(used to work).

But if you go to this page, then scroll down to it. You can right click that link, then "save target as".
