Default Service Manual PDF?

I have the '91 Service Manual. A great resource but it can be
difficult to find things in a timely manner. An example would be
last week I was trying to find a torque value to reinstall my
knock sensor. Its probably in there somewhere but I gave up after
20 minutes of looking. The index is too general.

So my question, can we get the Service Manual in a PDF or some
other downloadable form? If so the search function could save mucho tiempo on occasion.

Thanks

Don't know if this will help but in my 1994 FSM the torque spec for the knock sensor is in the driveability and emissions section section 6E3-C5-1, spec for the 94 is 19 Nm or 14 lb ft.

for years they make the manuals harder and harder to navigate, my 2005 chevy/gmc truck manual consists of 5 books and is a total joke when it comes to finding info.

hope this helps you out...jim

A PDF format would not be any better than the manual. For the sake of finding information quickly, you need a searchable Doc. I may be wrong but I know of no way to seach a PDF Doc?

It largely depends on how it is "authored in".
A well constructed pdf can have an index and even links to other places in the doc as well as external.

The biggest hurdle is getting the "OK" from GM to make such a free resource available on line. The next task would be to do the work.

Alright a searchable document then. My computer knowlege is rivaled
by the nearest 10 year old. But you get the idea. "ctrl F" is a
wonderfull thing.

I found mine on Ebay on a CD. I think I paid about $20 for it. It is searchable, but sometines I wish I had the book to flip pages in when out in the garage.

Great! After I read your post I searched ebay and did not find anything.
I did find this on Amazon:

Is that the same one you have?
