Electronic Service Manual??

I've been searching and haven't seen anyone say they have an electronic service manual for our vehicles. I'm surprised at this as they're readily available for the motorcycle I ride and posted all over the internet.

I found this on Ebay...anyone try it out?

You can download the entire FSM for your specific year truck from here:

This is another good reference but it's for a 2003 Tacoma:

I found another on Ebay for $5. Probably will go that route. Got a supercharger coming and need to be prepared.

The download link I gave is for the actual Toyota FSMs. On eBay it's a hit or miss as to whether you get the actual FSM on CD or it turns out to be something else like a Haynes or Chiltons manual scan instead. Really depends on the seller.

Call the dealer and ask what a hard copy FSM will run you.
I guarantee that $10 will look mighty good after that.

$10 bucks is a steal, especially if you take advantage and download in a day...or 20 minutes...

I am sure someone on here has the .pdf FSM of the 3rd gen 4runner, but they just need a place to host it.

hopefully that person(s) would help out the fellas here. Me, on other hand, I can work w/ Tacoma FSM which is slight diff to the body electrical but the engine electrical the same.

Spend the $10 and d/l the actual manuals. Want to make it easy? Read this thread from 'Mud. The instructions are located in the first three posts and the downloaders for the 2002 4Runner are in post #128. Fully Automatic Factory Service Manual (FSM) Downloading

I ended up getting one from Ebay for $5 on CD and it's the shizzle. Searchable, printable, TOC is linked, links throughout when other sections are mentioned, etc. It's like 2200 pages. Well worth the $5. Appears to have originally been found in a Torrent site, but it was worth the $5 for me to not have to search it out.
