Not as of yet. Those have been added to the elusive list for future searching.

Matt,
Thanks for doing this. Please keep me in mind.

Any chance finding an A440-A442 transmission manual? I haven't been able to find anything mysel after spending hours scouring the net for it. I intend to look some more when I take my vacation in a couple of days and have access to high speed to be able to look deeper and faster.

Keep up the good work, you are rendering an invaluable service!

That's the absolutely evil one to find. I've had quite a few goes at finding that one, and so far, absolutely zilch. The only thing I did find was some form of basic exploded diagram, if I remember correctly. I think I posted that in this thread somewhere, or in the thread in the 70 series forum.

The torrent system is in place now. Going to be adding the torrent files over the next day or two, so all files over approx. 1 meg in size will have this little icon appear next to the normal download link when the torrent file is available for that download:



Click on that icon and you'll be prompted to save/open the torrent.

If anybody notices any quirks or anything, btw, if you could give me a shout it would be greatly appreciated. Tested everything as much as possible before putting this new system on the site, (and sorted a couple of unbeknown quirks after that too), but just incase something else pops up on the gremlin front, give me a shout.

Btw, the longer someone can seed after downloading, the better. The server itself is providing a seed for all the files, but every bit of help on the seeding front would be appreciated.

Wildsmith, don't suppose you have a supplement for RM132E, do you? Looking for a supplement to the B series repair manual that would cover the 3BII engine, found in some cruisers from late '88 to early '90.

Sorry, I don't, my FSM collecting has focused on my UK 80 series.

You are an absolute star sir. Trying to find that A44* info has been my bane for months.

Would it be okay if I added the ones I'm missing from those above to the downloads site too?

Thanks ever so much for scanning and sharing those, btw.

Cheers.

Feel free. The A442F FSM has traveled a bit, I got it from a second hand book seller in Australia.

Aren't those UZ engines used in the Tacomas/Tundras?

Have just finished downloading the 2007 EPC

The 2007_toyota_epc_install.zip is empty… so how do we install the disk??
Do we just load them in the old 2004 EPC??

Regards Christian

Just checked it from this end, (did a fresh download just incase), and it appears fine. Are you sure it's not just Windoze which is hiding the files? One is a DLL file, (no idea what that's for, but left it in there just incase), and the other file should be an iso image.

I believe that method should work too, though don't take that as gospel.

[coldtaco]

Still looking for electrical/maintenance manual for early LJ-78
And parts/maintenance/electric manual for 96 HDJ-80/81 (?) with the 1HD-FT engine.
Thanks.

[80cruiserfan]

[TJDIV]

Starting in slight babble mode first, it's amazing how much attention one pays to that word once it's brought to their attention. Seems there are only a few over our way who use it in general too.

Just wanting to ask, btw, if it would be preferable for me to add the RM numbers to the download descriptions for the Toyota manuals, where applicable? Would it possibly make finding the manual one is after any easier?

Also, any opinions on the torrent system? Has anyone downloaded via that method? If so, does everything work as expected, and does it seem to be coping/working better than the ftp system?

[wildsmith]

I used torrent to get the EPC and it seemed to work well. The FSM's often refer to other FSM's by number so that could be useful.

I noticed the other day we've got a FSM download service from Toyota in Europe similar to that mentioned elsewhere on mud for the USA.

I would like to take the opportunity to thank you for an EXCELLENT PDF conversion. Most of the text IS text instead of simply pictures like one can see in other 'photocopy' manuals, which contributes to its very compact small download size. Nevertheless, the pictures are very clear. Kudos on the OCR and for a job VERY WELL DONE!!!

Cheers. That's good to hear. I was beginning to become a bit paranoid regarding whether it was working okay or not.

I've updated them now with any manual PN's I could find, so it should make life a little easier.

I've also added a reference id under each download too, so if anyone does notice a description that's incorrect, or knows the correct PN that isn't already mentioned for a specific manual, just let me know the ref id for that download and I'll get it revised/updated.

Plus, I've added a direct link to the category for each manual listed when you do a search, so that you can go to the respective category for each manual displayed in the results. That was a complete bugbear of mine, the lack of a category link, so I finally decided to get it sorted. Should be a bit less arsey to navigate now, hopefully.

Matt,
Snailtrail and I are working on getting the 14B and 15B FSM scanned to PDF. (His manuals, my scanning) The plan is that once scanned I'll send you a copy of the file for the library. Any suggestions on scanning resolution that seems best. Cheers.

Cheers. You're a star. If I remember correctly, (bearing in mind that it has been an awfully long time since I last did any scanning), I believe the best resolution for quality/size ratio is around 300 to 600 dpi. Anything above that tends to lead to bloated filesizes for little, if any, visible improvement. I'll double check and see what info I can dig out though, just to be on the safe side. Thanks again.
