Subaru Sambar English Service Manual

I’m not sure if it has everything but it has a decent amount to get you working on it

Not worth the price, but what is anymore? For me it was handy simply just to identify everything.

Perfect

I purchased this book years ago. It is not a repair manual and not much of a service manual. Poorly put together for North American Market where apparently Danko is selling this book of little value to target market. . No diagnostic or troubleshooting index. No how to find or steps to repair or service basic parts for maintainance such as where windshield fill is located to where radiator cap is. This publication is what it says. A Japanese bench guide for mechanics familiar with the vehicle. Or in the company of a mechanic in Japan who is familiar with vehicle. This manual offers good electric schematics and torque values on engine rebuild. Other than that, it has zero value to the individual who wants to successfully work on the vehicle. Zero steps to remove and replace any item in need of repair on vehicle except engine. No other basic wear items such as clutch removal and replace; etc,etc. Working on a KEI class vehicle in North America is a must if you purchase the mini truck. This manual is not helpful.

The "Author" of this manual took over 2500 pages of the original Japanese service manual, and condensed it down to about 200 pages. As such, it skims over many things, including some very important information. Even then, some things that are included are flat out wrong. For example: The head bolt torque procedure shows the backwards (removal) order, and only lists 1 of 4 steps to properly torque the bolts. It also claims to cover models from 1990 to 2006, however it is completely based on the 1990 service manual and omits all changes afterwards. Even my 1992 Sambar has significant differences when it comes to wiring as compared to this book. Sambars after 1998 are a completely different generation, and nearly nothing would apply to those models.

I got this book because frankly there is no other that i could use as there is no other english versions. I found the illustration quite good . this will be handy to have with my 1995 subaru sambar.

Very informative book. Just make sure you’re clear on what years this book covers.
