You might be able to find some of the diagrams at www.autozone.com

I have a Chiltons or suchlike.  It might also have a schematic which would
give
you the answers you need.  If you cant find it online, I would consider
scanning
a page or two for you.

Most aftermarket auto parts stores sell Haynes manuals for under $20.  They
have some schematics in them but are not exhaustive.  They'll cover most of
what you'll likely do.

Yep, they are pretty cheap. www.alldata.com is possibly a better solution,
and
a bit cheaper.

Well - I use All Data, but primarily for the up to date TSB's.  The
subscription for the first car is $24.95 per year and $14.95 for each car
after that.  And... it's only a one year subscription.  That makes the cost
quite a bit higher than a Haynes manual.  I've found the Haynes manuals to
be very useful for most repairs over the years so I freely recommend them to
99% of the DIY'ers out there.  Usenet makes a good forum for those few
questions that Haynes won't address - as does a simple conversation with the
dealer or a mechanic.

I haven't looked - does anyone know if the All Data subscription allows you
to download the entire collection of information for the car you are
subscribed for?  I'm suspecting they don't but it never hurts to ask...

Well, yes you can, but not with one click of the button as far as I know.
You can, with a little patience, download and print every sheet (at least
all I have tried). But it takes time.
I have been a subscriber for a couple of years, and access to the TSB's,
etc, may the cost worth it to me.
I do keep a paper copy of areas of particular interest to me.

Some of the Haynes and Chiltons are pretty poor, but they are certainly
better than nothing.

Try www.eautorepair.net they
have a lot of manuals and you
can rent them by week,month
or year, cost is about $7.95 per
week. If you need it for a one time
only it's not a bad way to go.

Try:

www.helminc.com

and get the real deal service manuals.  There is no substitute.  Cost
for most service manuals is around $130.  At today's garage prices, if
the manuals allow you to do even one repair job yourself it will pay
for itself.  Haynes, Chilton's etc. do not hold a candle to the
genuine factory service manuals.  They have procedures, testing flow
charts and all kinds of detailed and specific information.   The last
set I bought for my Camaro is 4.5 inches thick spread over three
volumes.

No doubt, the factory service manuals are best, if you need the depth.
If you just need a peek at a schematic, there are cheaper ways.
Public libraries are an often forgotten source of good service manuals.
Some have rather good professional service sets.
