Looks like an incomplete random collection of service manual pages with technical service bulletins mixed in, all in random order. This is nothing like what their site advertises.

I see that key engine, transmission, brake and suspension sections are extremely incomplete or completely missing.

Very disappointing.

I will dispute this with my credit card, and I will lodge a complaint with the various authorities, and I am going to show this to my attorneys, they are going to have fun with these goons.

The manual seems to be complete and was easy to download. The pages are images, however, and not searchable.

The download I received was a complete waste of my money. Was not even close to what it was represented as. I thought I was getting a proper service repair manual. What I got was a collection of service bulletins. I sent an email to your company right after I looked through it requesting my money back. Have yet to hear a response. Terry Muich

More detailed than I thought, still trying to navigate through it, not what I thought it would be, thought it would be more like the Haynes manual.

It was much larger than i expected. 5 documents at 12k pages each. Its not something ill actually be able read but its easy enough to find what you need..
The Ford F250 manual is much easier to navigate at just over 8000 pages.
If i spend the money for Adobe Acrobat Professional ill be able to break it down into manageable bits.
Both manuals area great value for the money.

Excellent. Now I can actually start working on my cars again with confidence. YouTube videos really are inadequate.

Schematics were not high resolution making the markings and names difficult to read when zoomed in. Improvement is needed. Otherwise it is a good document.

I wasn’t sure why I needed this to be a PDF, but it was apparent once I got it. It includes what would be thousands of pages if it were in print. The links take you to wherever you need to go in the text.

I didn’t realize I would have a link in an email to click to get another email with another link to download.

This factory service and repair manual for the 1987 Ford Topaz covers the four-door sedan and the two-door sedan in three trims, Austero, GLX and GS, all powered by the same naturally aspirated 2.3L OHV inline-four on gasoline. Since there is one engine to document, the procedures, specifications, torque values, wiring diagrams and diagnostics for it are presented once and apply to every trim. The manual then separates the body material by sedan type, so that the two-door and four-door are each handled with their own figures where they diverge.

Engines covered

  • 2.3L inline-four (140 cu in) — OHV, naturally aspirated, gasoline

Body styles covered

  • 4-door sedan
  • 2-door sedan

Trims covered

  • Austero
  • GLX
  • GS

Known issues on the 1987 Topaz. No recall has ever been issued for the 1987 Topaz. Owners have filed four complaints with NHTSA, three of them about the electrical system and one about the service brakes. Three reports is a small sample, but they point at the same area, and the wiring diagrams and electrical diagnostics in this manual are the reference for tracing that kind of fault on the 2.3L car. The brake procedures, specifications and torque values cover the remaining complaint, and both sets of material apply equally to the two-door and four-door sedans.

No active recalls The 1987 Ford Topaz has no recalls on file with NHTSA.
No service bulletins No technical service bulletins on file with NHTSA for the 1987 Ford Topaz.
