Service Manual 1996 Taco

Ordered and received Dave Graham Repair Manual on CD. Schematics showing parts and information on assembley and repairs as PDFs. Also contains additonal info --- Owner's manual, service bulletins, service specs, fluid specs,wiring diagrams. At Rockauto P/N 95TTACC (95-TTACC) for $21.00.

 

is there a paper version of this?
my model year (I assume) is very similar to the '96, although a few differences expected

 

I have a pdf version of the 96 fsm, its 1634 pages. It would be a huge stack of paper if printed, and i thought about it.

 

I actually printed it for my 1995. AND I purchased the 2 actual FSMs.

The 2 FSM Books I keep in the house since I don't want to get them dirty as they are Original from 1995. I use them to do any kind of research/plan a job or project before doing it. Like order parts, educate myself on the job, and what tools I may need.

The PDF I printed (yes all 1600+ pages) and I purchased clear protectors and 3 ring binders like 5 (big ones). Took a long time to put ALL the pages in protectors and in the binders but now I have the full manual in clear protectors in folders so I can flip through it in the shop while my hands are dirty. I also added colored tabs to mark sections.
Also I make minor notes on the protectors with a sharpie for things not mentioned in the FSM (tricks, measurements, previous measurements to compare to, and tools I need to use).

 

The one I noted in my post(Dave G's Repair Manual) is only a PDF version. Note there is NO index you have to look under major topics and search.

 

Wow!

Sounds like a plan to have a lifetime truck to me.............

 

That's the plan! My girl said I need to upgrade soon Haha i told her sure i will buy an additional truck but never replace. I will be 80yrs old with that thing.

 

have you had your truck since it was new?

 

2nd owner . Bought it off the original owner who bought it new. Gave me 3 folders worth of paperwork. One had all dealership paperwork and even the window sticker. One had all maintenance records/receipts, and the other every emission inspection.
Very well taken care of!

 

I know it’s been a while but can you email or pm a copy of the 1996 manual? Thanks

 

I have one, let me know if this works for you. https://www.dropbox.com/s/9sqr88vdbh90lpx/Tacoma Service Manual.pdf?dl=0

FYI, the search function doesn't work and you need to scroll to get where you wanna go.. but it works.

 

Awesome thanks buddy.
