Ive been trying to find a haynes or simular manual for my uno with no luck! does anyone know where i can get hold of a manual for a 60D start (DIESEL)

My haynes manual for the uno doesnt cover diesel engines, so you may have to look a bit harder. Try from haynes themselves. Other than that, the only other workshop manual for an Uno went out of press a few years ago IIRC. Some copies were floating around on Ebay...

 

[unosy22]

ok mate will have browse on tebay

 

[Morty Mort]

Don't think it exists, but the everything else besides the engine is the same.

Porter Manual for Uno Diesel!

Hi All,

The Uno FIAT UNO Porter Manual covers all (UK) Unos 83 – 96! Including the Uno Diesel
FIAT part number 46000980
ISBN 1899238239
Porter port number: PM 3823

http://www.amazon.co.uk/exec/obidos/ASIN/1899238239/qid=1110748769/026-3043164-9858845

No way!!! - Look at the price - £65.57 – I paid £5 off e-bay a few months ago – not seen one since (apart from mine!)– A guy who works for FIAT saved one or two from the bin lol. Brand new!

It's got loads of info missing from all 3 Haynes manuals I’ve had in my time - 2 Orange covered ones and the newer red cover one (which I hate!)

Kind Regards,

Hey Louie,

I also picked up a Porter manual off Ebay for about a fiver last year. They do come up every now and then but you have to keep your eyes peeled.

Also, I agree with you about the red and orange Haynes manuals. The orange manual was for the older Unos, and is a 'workshop manual'. The red one which also covered the mk 2 models was a 'service and repair manual' if I recall correctly.

I hate those Haynes 'service and repair manuals' that they now seem to do instead of 'workshop' manuals. I mean, they rate the difficulty of doing jobs from 1 - 5 spanners! And they seem much less easy to use for anything more than basic servicing, plus they aren't as comprehensive as the 'workshop' manuals.

I still use my trusty old orange Haynes manual and the Porter manual to good effect. I use the red Haynes for basic servicing outside where I don't have to worry about the pages getting dirty!

Hi All,

Chas, your spot on about the titles – I’d missed that!

Absolutely ! Do you have the same problem as me? – too many manuals and conflicting information eg. Torque settings

My first orange manual got soaked in vegetable oil when a bottle exploded in my first MK1. When I got the Mk2 and a red Haynes manual I binned the orange one after a while it smelt so bad.

I had to buy another orange one when I realised the red one refers to some diagrams by page number – the red one dose not have page numbers as such and the diagrams or pictures are missing – so bad editing…

Sy your welcome M8! –Good luck with your search!

bit of a long shot and most don't keep them anymore, but there may be a chance your local library has something. just go onto their website. it's most likely they won't have it but you never know.

they might be able to get hold of a copy from another library in the country.

 

[unosy22]

worth a go i guess!

thanks for your advise

Good luck if you bid!

 

[Luke]

Is that the one you got louie? Is it any good - cos i may snap that one up lol

 

[Jai]

unosy22..don't listen to them, they are just teasing you!!!! aren't you guys?!but just to be safe i will have a look in my local main library after the weekend, they have had a massive refurb, and i beleive a lot of books are coming off the shelves and will be for sale, they usually cull a lot haynes manuals and the such like,

 

[Louie Bee]

does any1 know??? 4 How much this will go?

Hi All,

Is that the one you got louie? Is it any good - cos i may snap that one up lol

yer it is M8, - its not perfect either - much better though.

Some Fiat garages still have them in stock - possibly the Priory Group. - They sell for about £10 New IF you can find one.

Everyone prob. thinks they are worth about £40 as Amazon had a listing. - So people may well fight hard over this one (not me).

TBH I’d forget this one - I reckon this one will go for far too much, as it’s the first since this thread stated... Someone with a Turbo to care for may well. pay a lot. Lol

Remember it aint over till the last second...

Good luck with the search...

Which library, and when does the sale start?

Don't worry, I won't try and race you for the manuals!, but I'm sure there's loads of other good books stuff to pick up cheap.

gayton, they just finished a month long refurb, usually they also have a massive clearout, i picked up haynes for mates for as little as £1.50 in the past, all totally useable
