2000ACCORD-Which shop manual to BUY?
www.helminc.com is selling FACTORY authorized honda repair manual for
$70 + $7 SH, and I like them for clarity and clear pictures. But the Chilton's and Hayes manual's seem to be cheaper. Can some one recommend which is better. Thanks in advance. |

I have owned two Hondas, and I bought the Helm manual for both. Never regretted it, Helm is so much better than the other ones. My thought is that if you are planning on enough mechanical involvement to actually need a service manual, you need the one from Helm. -- ================================================== ===== A very modest collection of Honda tech info can be found at: http://www.geocities.com/ng_randolph |

Haynes and Chilton are good for kindling when you're trying to get a fire started. -- TeGGeR® The Unofficial Honda/Acura FAQ www.tegger.com/hondafaq/ |

LOL. seriously- you can do a complete teardown based on the helm. it includes troubleshooting, wiring diagrams, etc. its what the factory techs use. came in invaluable to me when my CEL came on. with a $99 scanner, a $3 ohmmeter, and the helm, i was able to pinpoint precisely what the problem was. heater circuit on the primary O2 sensor was burned out, and the helm told me exactly how to test for it, and what color wires to hook the ohmmeter to. i doubt the chilton would have gone that far. |
