THANKS to all for helping answer my questions about Chrysler factory
manuals.

I ultimately found and bought a "lot" of 6 Chrysler factory manuals on EBay
for about the same price as the factory service manual alone.
The lot included:
Factory Service Manual for 94' LeBaron (etc.)
Body Diagnostic Manual for 93-94' LeBaron (etc.)
Body Diagnostic Manual for Airbag System on 94' LeBaron (etc.)
Body Diagnostic Manual for 93-9?' Spirit & Acclaim
Body Diagnostic Manual for Airbag system on 93-9?' Spirit & Acclaim
93-94' Power train Diagnostic Procedures Manual for 2.2L/2.5L TBI and 2.5
SFI engines

I'll have to check them when they arrive, but it looks like the last 3 books
won't be of use to me personally.
Do you know of anyone willing to swap those last 3 books for a Power train
Diagnostic Manual of the 3.0L engine used in my 94' LeBaron Convertible?
