I have the Stu Ritter book, the English Haynes 124 book (available at amazon.co.uk and sometimes on ebay), and the FSM CDs. I think together they are almost as good as the Helm service manuals for my Isuzu. ;) None of them is great, but usually you'll find what you need SOMEWHERE among the three. Marshall, what is incorrect in the Ritter book? I'm curious what I should look out for. Alex Chamberlain '87 300D Turbo '93 Isuzu Trooper
