Stupid haynes manual
Are there better DIY manuals out there? Or webpages specifically for 67-72 truck info like the manuals?
I'm looking for the ways that things are routed, like wires, hoses and heater stuff. I'm looking for how things were ran from the factory. The truck I bought looks like the PO worked on it ALOT. Which may not be a good thing! ![]() Thanks Guys For All of The Help You've Given Me So Far! ![]() -Cory |

Get a factory assembly manual. That book has told me more stuff about what goes where than I care to mention. The board vendors should sell them.

Cool thanks. It's just so hard to be outside in the snow and 5 degree winter when the shop at work is full of fixers! I'll check that out.

Would you post your homemade glossary? I haven't made one yet, and it would be cool if I could just steal yours ![]()

I have both a Haynes manual and a CSM for both the Olds and the truck. I toss my nasty, ripped up, greasy haynes manuals in the trunk for quick roadside reference if I need it, and keep the 2,000 page volumes at home. If you guys have never seen a CSM for 1983 oldsmobiles, you're missing out. First, there's the CSM that's at least 1500 pages, and another 900 page ESM (electrical service manual). insane.

Here's a suggestion that might help. Take wiring diagram out of the Chevrolet service manual and track the wires one at a time using a highlighter and notes on the diagram. Or go to a JY and pull a wiring harness to bring home and lay on your garage floor...all of a sudden it becomes very clear and obvious. there are really on two major harnesses in the truck...under the hood and under the dash. Once you pull one and look at it...it will become very obvious.
