Question Basic Service manual help
I have always done basic maint on my "gaser" wheels over the last 40 years.

(ok I'm old )

I just bought my first Diesel (listed below) and would like to get a basic maint manual. Any ideas on who makes a decent manual for basic stuff? Chiton or someone like that??

Thanks Bill

For a 97?? - I doubt it. They have manuals for 03 and up.

There is a huge difference between an 97 and an 06
