The Photos Are Just Fine....:
I just received my copy of this book and I don't find anything wrong with the photos like many other reviews posted here. This is my second Haynes book, the first one is Honda Civic 1984 thru 1991 which I have used extensively for my '89 Civic Wagon 4WD. I used it to do some major maintenance work and the photos were worse than this one.

Must have some background in auto repair:
This book is not for the novice. You will need some background in fixing cars to use this book.

As a matter of fact, the identification or location of the elements that make up the system is not covered by the book at all.

They may have looked good on the computer when they were editing it but by the time they were printed cheaply on cheap paper they are completely unacceptable. There also aren't enough photos in some cases. They show you a close up of something but you... more info
