helm service manual difference
Hey guys what is the difference in the red covers and the white covers on the service manuals? Ive got a good price on a white one and was wondering if it was worth the money. Thanks

Didn't know when I bought-I've got the white covers and am satisfyed,
but alot of members say to get the red covered-one thing I think I saw
in red versus white, is the red shows color wiring whereas the white
just tells the color-

You can get by on just the white, but the red will include more information.

Depends on the year, but since you have a '95 pass on the white cover prelim. Murphy's law states that if you need to look something up, you won't find it in teh prelim version. How do I know? Because I have the white prelim version. I ended up buying the two edition final red cover books that contain everything.
Only buy the white cover version if you need to level a table or desk.(or if you want to kill a lot of cockroaches)
