Where do I get really good repair manuals for the Ford Ranger?

I have the Haynes from the local auto parts store and it really lacks
the kind of info I need to troubleshoot. I can read and understand
schematics and other engineering info. Any good ideas?

Thanks in advance,
Mike

Are the genuine Ford workshop manuals good enough for you?

When I wanted a good manual for my Jeep (an '81 CJ5 that I bought in '98), I
went to the Jeep dealer with my request. I got an 800 phone number where I
could order a complete copy of the factory shop manual. It cost about $75,
but is by far the best automotive manual in my library. By far.

Do a search on eBay motors for your manual. I bought a used factory
service manual for my '74 Trans Am for about about $25 a year or so ago.

Jeff,
That's a great idea also. Thank you!
