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 1991 Ford Escort covers two quite different fours: a 1.8-liter DOHC inline-four and a 1.9-liter SOHC inline-four, both naturally aspirated and gasoline-fueled. Four trims are listed, Base, GT, LX and LX Sport, across two-door hatchback, four-door hatchback and four-door wagon bodies. Valvetrain, timing and fueling differ sharply between the two engines, so the specifications, torque values, wiring diagrams and diagnostics are given separately for each before the shared chassis work begins.

Engines covered

  • 1.8L inline-four (112 cu in) — DOHC, naturally aspirated, gasoline
  • 1.9L inline-four (116 cu in) — SOHC, naturally aspirated, gasoline

Body styles covered

  • 2-door hatchback
  • 4-door hatchback

Known issues on the 1991 Escort. Four recalls are on federal record for this year. Roll pins securing the ignition lock in the steering column housing could shift, letting the lock cylinder come loose and the column bind. A front suspension offset toe adjusting pin could fracture under load. A bolt holding a fuel line shield to the dash panel could foul the accelerator pedal and hold the throttle open. And a cracked solder joint at the fuel pump sending unit could vent fuel from a full tank. Owners have filed 393 complaints with NHTSA on the electrical system, seat belts and the fuel system, all covered in detail here.
