1988 3.2 Book Repair manual

[Evan911]

I have the 101 Projects for your Porsche 911. What other repair manual would be recommended as a reference?

There is a Bentley manual for the Carreras. That would be a top choice, even over the factory manuals (which you will eventually want, but buy the Bentley first).

Pelican doesn't seem to have it, here is an Amazon link: https://www.amazon.com/Porsche-911-Carrera-Service-Manual-dp-0837616964/dp/0837616964/ref=mt_other?_encoding=UTF8&me=&qid=1599457041

This appears to be the hard cover, but other sellers have the paperback for less.

Yes Bentley but some tourqe values are off double check CV joints
If in question use common sense.

Oh good point. The technical spec book is handy for torque specs. They come up used on Buy & Sell, or you can get a reprint from Porsche Classic.

Thanks everyone, I ordered the Bentley for now.

something else convenient to have on hand is the parts catalog. you can down load this directly off the Porsche website (here) just select you model and year then save to your computer.
