Service Manuals..........?

[Theoutdoorsman]

Does anyone have any opinions on the Clymer shop manuals? Here's a link to one on eBay:<br /><br /> http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2412829250&category=26453 <br /><br />Just wondering if anyone has one or can tell me if they're worth the money. I also checked out the manuals at:<br /><br /> http://www.oldmercs.com/ <br /><br />My guess would be, the later of the two would be my better choice. Any opinions out there? Thanks a bunch!!!!...........Alan

Ahoy, Alan.<br /><br />I have several aftermarket (Clymer, Seloc) manuals and several OEM manuals.<br /><br />Both are helpful. Clymer for whatever comes along within its range and OEM for specific models.<br /><br />If you want to work on just one engine, the OEM manual for that engine is by far the best choice.<br /><br />If you want to work on a range of engines from one maker, go for the Clymer.<br /><br />Good luck.

Assuming your not talking about the manuals at oldmercs.com, where can I find the OEM manuals? I'm looking for a manual for my 1150 Mercury 115 1971 model. Thanks.......Alan
