spend the extra money and get yourself a Factory Service Manual, I got Chiltons and it sucks.

lavotski · 07-07-2002, 06:59 PM

I got my FSM off ebay brand new for 60, keep trying. Call Nissan too, they can get them, but I have no idea for how much.

no luck on ebay yet, but thanks for the idea

You can always order it directly from the publishers of the nissan factory service manuals. Heres the number 1 800 247 5321. It should be a lot cheaper then $247.. I think. Never get any other service manual except for the nissan factory manual it is all you need.
