Haynes is a good starter one for the amateur because it provides
additional hints and suggestions, although not as detailed as the oem
shop manual and can be quite general in some places. Autozone has free
guides but because it's free it stays some years behind. Won't hurt to
check as an additional reference:

Also, since Autozone bought AllData you can subsribe to the latest
info there too. Sample AllData info:

You can download the winrar archiver from:

And The ISO file can be downloaded from:

http://www.filecrunch.com/file/~ga05yg <--- Part 1
http://www.filecrunch.com/file/~tlgobs <--- Part deux

The two rar files are 90 Megabytes in size, but once
unrared it is a 300 Megabyte ISO image.BTW: File will be removed
automatically if there is no download for 30 days.

FSM (factory service manual) & owners manuals can be acquired in
several ways:

Toyota Material Distribution Center

USA
Ph:1-800-622-2033 (outside CA)(M-F: 7-5 PST)
Ph:1-800-443-7656 (inside CA)

Speak to Beverly or Deloris

http://www.4crawler.com/4x4/FSM.shtml

1)buy a used one off e-bay
2)some Toyota dealerships may give you one or sell it for $10-20
(used) as most Toyota dealerships don't repair many old Toyotas and no
longer need the service manual
3)some public libraries sell their old books as they are not in demand
any longer
4)some free buy & sell classified papers, websites and bulletin boards
may have some used ones for sale
5)some junk yards may have one laying around
6)some Toyota specialty garages may have one laying around and no
longer use it as the vehicle may be too old and those mechanics
probably have so much experience that they could publish their own
factory service manual with corrections and "real world repair tips"
7)if someone has the FSM maybe they could scan all of the pages and
post it on a site for all of us to download or view.
