    Is this thing like the Lost Ark here, where I need Indiana Jones to find it for me? A Google search turns up exactly 2 I can get - on eBay. Seems a bit high perhaps what they are asking, considering this is a 17 year old truck. Anyone here have a clue where I can lay hands on one? I downloaded a free PDF of a 1997 CRV FSM I need to work on my daughter's car. I mean, Toyo is better, but THAT much better, where you can't even get to an FSM without divine intervention? lol

    Seriously, where in the hell can a guy buy or find one of these? I searched this forum for "service manual" or "FSM" and came up with a gagillion hits of posts that must mention them in some way. Not a big help there.

    If I would have seen this post last Monday I could have grabbed one for you from the junkyard. Was pulling parts off a '97 and the FSM was sitting in the passenger seat. Unfortunately its rained since then so even if it were to still be there, it's probably waterlogged.
