Summary: Excercise In Frustration
Comment: I agree with the other reviewers, which makes it unanimous so far. This book is useless. Here is a good example, I only bought this book so I could locate my "engine Coolant Sensor" on my 1994 3.2L Isuzu Rodeo. I found two brief spots in the book that mention this sensor. The two pictures of the sensor were blurry, B&W, dark pictures of a mystery 2.8L engine, which of course is nothing like mine. The instructions are even worse.
"Step 1: Remove the coolant sensor"
Wow that helps.
From what I hear, you are better off spending three times as much for the Helm OEM service manual which will at least only cover two years of the same models this one does. I've heard the Helm version has way more pictures and is more complete as well. Just stay away from this thing and you'll be doing yourself a favor.

Summary: Don't waste your money!
Comment: During my 37 years of driving I have probably owned a dozen repair manuals, most of which rated 3 to 4 stars. This Chilton's manual barely makes a 2. It covers too many years and models to cover more than the most rudimentary maintenance in any depth; there are too few illustrations; and it does not contain one exploded view of my 3.2L Trooper engine. There are parts on this engine that cannot be even found in this manual! Let's hope Haynes publishes one soon.
Rating: 2
Summary: Leaves the Reader with Questions
Comment: Good documentaion in a manual should not be written as though the reader has prior knowledge or hands on experience with the item being described. Haynes does a much better job of photo illustrations along with detailed instructions that are so precise that you accomplish a task with no prior expereience. Chilton's Maual leaves the reader asking "what is that".
Definitely not user friendly!
