Haynes is good to have, old Chilton would be better.
Good luck!

"Get something else
This meter is like Forest Gump's box of chocolates-you never know what you are going to get. The readings are all over the place, never the same from use to use."
If you don't want to pop for a Fluke or comparable, Radio Shack almost always has one on sale. I have an RS out in the shop that has been dead on reliable for over 15 years.

i can vouch for a fluke 115. they are accurate and tough. i accidentally ran mine over with a semi and it stills functions just fine after a new pair of testleads. nothing but a couple of scratches.
now the harbor freight one....... thats another story. probably run it over with a grocery cart and no more.

stethoscope I have tons of these. My wife is a nurse and buys a couple a year. I just hold a screwdriver between scope and surface. Works good.

test light I' had one of these for years. It's a couple of inches shorter though from reshaping the tip, after snapping it off.

multimeter I have a fluke, had about 20 years. Very handy
http://www.harborfreight.com/7-function-multimeter-98025.html
FSM factory service manual I have PDF copies of Factory service manual (1993), And (1991-1993)Chrysler-Mopar jeep OEM parts catalog. Also very handy. Any one needs copies of this let me know.
tradebit.com
I have several pairs of 16 ga. wire leads of various lengths, with alligator clips on both ends. Great for jumping wires temporarily while trouble shooting. I also use quite frequently
Haynes is good to have, old Chilton would be better. I gave up with them, too generic.
Good luck!
