some general help
Hey guys,
I just got all my "funds" together and bought my first car,
a 98 civic Cx (hatchback).... So far I'm not having too many problems,
(except that my clutch pedal has varied characteristics..... sometimes its
stiff, sometimes less so... weird). But anyways, I was trying to find some
information for the beginner mechanic on the web, and aside from basic stuff
I couldnt find much. I'm getting my electrical engineering b.eng in a year
so I am looking for some documentation where they assume the reader is not a
complete newbie.
Can someone recommend a good site/book? If possibly, I'm looking for
information on the actual repair of the car as well as the more detailed
theory.
Thx for the time,
Yuri.

Re: some general help
http://www.honda.co.uk/owner/workshopmanuals2.html has an online 1995-1997 Civic
manual that might be helpful.
The car's owner's manual has a lot of the basic maintenance instructions as well
as the maintenance manual.
If you do not have the owner's manual (which normally comes with a car bought
new), you can go to
http://www.hondacars.com/info/custom...rDetected=True
and click on the link to order an owner's manual. Or call the 800 number given
there, and they should be able to tell you how to get one.
I have a vague recollection that someone here recently said one could put in
one's car's VIN and get the owner's manual online at the Honda site?? Not sure
but it's worth a search or asking the 800 number people.
Alternatively, most of the public libraries I've used have a Chilton's manual
for the exact Honda model and year. Or you can go to a place like Autozone and
buy a manual for under $20. I think people favor Haynes manuals.

Yuri,
I hope that you are able to get that degree--you must be very smart.
You can get a Haynes Automotive Repair Manual for your specific car at
almost any auto parts store or by calling 1-805-498-6703. They also sell
them at Barnes and Nobel. If they don't have the one for your car--you can
order it.
Make sure you get the one made for your specific vehicle.

Re: some general help
My brother just got a Haynes manual for his CRX, it has a lot of
explanations for the how as well as why. For my car (83 civic) I got a
Honda service manual with the car and the only problem I have with it
is that it assumes that you know what everythink looks like beforehand
(ie. it will tell you that you need to remve something but will not
tell you how or where it is) however they may have changed that aspect
in the 10 years following.

Re: some general help
My brother just got a Haynes manual for his CRX, it has a lot of
explanations for the how as well as why. For my car (83 civic) I got a
Honda service manual with the car and the only problem I have with it
is that it assumes that you know what everythink looks like beforehand
(ie. it will tell you that you need to remve something but will not
tell you how or where it is) however they may have changed that aspect
in the 10 years following.
