The manual from Toyota Publications is my first thought. eBay if you like the cover color and don't mind used/dirty, Toyota Pub if you need clean, don't mind the different color cover, and can afford it.

Given a choice I would just get the electrical manual. They have been very helpful to me.

I have the Factory service Manual and the Haynes and Chiltons and when i need to find something they are all useless.

Although great for rebuilding Engines and transmissions .:wabbit2:

Are you talking about the fsm with green or red/orange cover? I've used the fsm MR2s, Camrys, Celicas, etc, and had a fsm for an '86 Pickup, and they all were amazing (imo).

Can't decide if I'm old, or old-school. After working on Toyotas (for fun) using fsm's (still call them bgb's) since the late-'80's, there's just something about having a factory manual opened up on the work-bench, working through a long maintenance task...
