my brother wants a repair manual for christmas and i 4get wich brand everybody uses i think its haynes is that rite???i want the 1 that everybody has i know that theres probably only 5 ppl without them and mine got stolen with my tools and im not sure of the brand..

 

The haynes manual sucks.
Buy the helms manual from your local honda dealer or direct from helms http://www.helminc.com

 

i thought it was helms but the auto parts store said i was thinking haynes because there is no helms...but when i looked at the haynes it was real thin and the 1 i had was thicker than my phonebook

 

Local autoparts stores stock haynes manuals. These manuals are a joke compared to helms

 

yea the hems are about as thick as a phonebook rite???

 

As thick as a phone book yes. Must have

 

+2 on the helms being much better, BUT...

i was given a haynes for my civic as a christmas gift way back when i got started with my car, and it did enough for me till i got really serious.

they BLOW ASS as far as troubleshooting, especially when it comes to electrical issues, but they have all the torque numbers and a decent general procedure section.

so if you dont wanna spend $60, it will get your brother goin in the right direction.

 

helms ftw....bible for your car...lol

 

well there isnt going to be any wireing shit going on its mostly to teach him how to pull the head and block and to drop a motor..and little shit like that
