Anybody else notice there isn't one picture of a 4.6L SOHC V8 in the "1994-2004 Ford Mustang Manual" from Haynes?

What were they thinking to only reference to a N/A DOHC 4.6L?

How do you manage to leave the most used, bought and driven engine within that ten year span out?

 

lol

haynes manuals blow. i couldve told you that before you bought it.

same with chiltons.

fords is the only good one that ive come across.

 

I'm flat out shocked, what a bunch of retards. Good information and a great database but wont help 4.6L SOHC V8 owners one ****ing bit in terms of repair/maintenance. /sigh

Do I need to run up the street to the Ford dealer and pick up their manual? Or can I get it elsewhere without stealership prices?

By the way your cobra is one sexy car, my GT is the same color .

 

the chilton for 94-98 doesnt show the right stuff either.

it showed an old fox body 5.0 for the sn95 5.0. (i know, not quite as bad as the haynes BS, but still ridiculous)

 

Get this.....

This thing is showing me the early 90s 3.8L V6, the N/A DOHC V8 and the fox 5.0. OH BOY!
Theres not even one ounce of 03-04 cobra information period.

 

I always thought Chiltons were good but that is for the old 50-70 cars. But I agree Haynes really does blow. I bought one from ford it is way better. Cost more money than Haynes but definately worth it.

 

i changed a cylinder head using a haynes manual..

*shrugs*

did the job for me

 

So are you guys saying the haynes manual has nothing about 4.6 sohc, but only 4.6 dohc? Or that it just doesn't have a sohc pic?

 

I have a '94-03' Mustang Haynes manual and it has plenty of pics of the 4.6 SOHC engine. The thing that pisses me off is that it doesn't tell you what size socket or wrench you need for anything. Come on, is it really that hard to include that? It's "based on a complete teardown and rebuild." You'd think they could let you know whether that bolt is a 14mm, or a 15mm.

 

good luck finding one that does.....

there are so many other possible jobs that the haynes manuals dont cover. they usually arent as clear either.
