FlyByNite Posted April 18, 2003 Share Posted April 18, 2003 If anyone buys THIS I will swap a scanned 90 service manual for the opportunity to scan the parts list also. It will be returned to you in the same shape that I recieve it with a cd containing it and the FSM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FlyByNite Posted April 19, 2003 Author Share Posted April 19, 2003 The cost of the cd is somewhere between a dime and a quarter. The time involved doing the scanning is thebig thing, working at it off and on, it took a couple weeks to scan the Helm's 90 service manual ( six inches thick or about 85 megabytes scanned ) I also scanned a half assed parts list and had to go through girations because instead of black and white it was greyscale and required scanning at 200dpi to be readable. The FSM is scanned at 150dpi so that it would be usable when printed, it actually looks better printed than it looks on screen. 75dpi vs 150dpi.I'm visiting my daughter in Missouri until next Wednesday, when I get back to Virginia I'll attach a few pages to a message so you can see what it looks like. I save everything as pdf files so it will take Adobe Acrobat Readerto view them. It's a freebie, what isn't a freebie is Adobe Acrobat to create the files.

Rawja Posted April 19, 2003 Share Posted April 19, 2003 The parts book offered there is an '89 edition. Ideally, you'd want a '93 edition of the parts manual as that would constitute a "final edition" of the parts manual. If you are serious about scanning it (it looks to be a herculean task to me) I would be willing to loan you my '93 edition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
