I have the K6A and gapped my plugs at .035 and torqued them at 19.5 ft-lbs. Getting ready to install a tach and would love to glance at the ECU in the 2002 Carry manual to see if I should have a tach terminal I could attach to.
Just wondering if everything was going good with the K6A suzuki manual? Is the end of this month still looking good for the release of it? Thanks for everything Don!!!
Hi, I just posted this note in the Mitsubishi site... Let me see if I can ask James the update on K6A. This is from my conversation yesterday. (This a paste from Mistubishi blog in case you have seen it). Yes there will be more in the Mitsubishi Series but James’s schedule is rather busy at this time with a book on how to start an International Import-Export Business. Interesting and I suspect it may include insights to the Japanese car import-export business (he wouldn’t say). After meeting with him yesterday he said he would proceed with the following book publishing schedule. 1989~1998 Suzuki Parts Manual 1999~2004 Suzuki Parts Manual 1999~Newer Suzuki Service Manual 1999~2005 Daihatsu Service Manual 1990-1998 Mitsubishi Service Manual He did not provide a publishing date at this time. I’ll inform everyone as I receive updates.
I've been hunting for an English version of the FSM for a '96 Suzuki Jimny with the K6A engine and a parts manual would be great too. Hopefully it sounds like there may be light at the end of the tunnel as the engine has a bit of a knock so I need to tear it down and a manual would be a great help.
The new Suzuki Carry & Every Full parts manual including K6A engine should be out in two weeks. The new manual is for 1999~2006 Suzuki. Cheers, Don
Hello, Yes you are correct….I forgot to put the link...Oops! http://stores.lulu.com/tkojames Cheers, Don
Can you confirm that this new parts manual covers the K6A turbo engine? Also, do you know when a service manual might be available that covers the K6A turbo engine? I have a knock in it and need to pull it apart but need a manual to check all the specs.
Hello, you didnt state the year/model of your K6A. The K6A Engine Service manual should be out in a few weeks. CHeers, Don
It's a K6A turbo engine from a '96 Jimny JA22. I realise that there will be some differences but the basic architecture should be the same as the later K6A turbo engines although it does not have coil pack ignition which is something I would like to upgrade it to or VVT. At this stage I have no specs or service manual so anything I can get about it would be a great help. I just don't want to spend money on parts or service manuals that won't be of any use to me, hence my checking that it does cover the K6A turbo engine.
Hey Don, I have a 2002 Carry DA62T with K6A. Will the new manual cover this truck? I did not see it listed on the parts manual book.
Hello, Let me answer our Aussie buddy first. We have a JA22 Jimny book coming out in December and a K6A Specific Engine manual within the next 3 weeks. The Turbo is the same in this parts book. You might want to hold out for a few weeks to make sure you have the correct specifications for the Jimny. Although the transmission and drive train parts are in this book, you might as well wait for the Jimny/Cappacino book. For our friend with the DA62T, 99% of your truck is covered in this book. This parts book has the F6A/K6A but your model has a different spec camshaft and a few minor differences. The suspension-transmission-brakes-electrical, etc are all the same. The K6A service manual coming out in the next few weeks would cover the difference. Cheers, Don
Don, many thanks for your prompt and informative replies. I will hold off a few more weeks then as the JA22 Jimny and K6A turbo info is what I really want/need
Just wondering if there is any news on the Jimny/Cappuccino manual? I was hoping for a nice Xmas present
Hello, the Jimny/Cappuccino manual engine manual is out. Here is the link http://www.lulu.com/content/5062507 The last book coming out for this year is the 1990~1998 Suzuki parts manual. There will be a bunch next year, but this will be the last for 2008. Hope everyone has a good holiday! Cheers, Don
Thanks Don. Do you know if there is anything coming that will cover the fuel injection, ignition and wiring for the JA22 Jimny and will the '90 - '98 parts book also cover this model? Thanks, CJ
Hello CJ, I talked to James and he said before the Jimny and others he is going to finish the complete K-Truck series. The 1990~98 Carry Truck & Every Van parts book maybe nest week. It has the Turbo & Non-Turbo including EPI and carbureted versions. Some parts for the Jimny are the same but not all. He is still doing a Subaru Sambar parts book and a Mitsubishi manual so other manuals maybe Feb/March range. You never know as he pops things up here and there. I will post more info as I get it. Cheers, Don
Hi Guys, the 1990-1998 Factory Parts Manual is out. 450 pages of everything on your truck or van! Even covers all transmissions 4/5 speed and automatics. http://www.lulu.com/content/5506553 Cheers, Don
First of all I would like to give a BIG thanks to Donald Andrews for all he has done for us mini truck owners! Next, I have a 1990 Carry type M-DB51T. I don't see this particular number on the cover of the service manual. Does the manual cover this model? I have searched high and low but can't find if this has already been covered. If it has I appologize, but I really need a useable manual. Thanks
The manual does not have DB specific information, but the essentials are exactly the same as your truck. Get the manual. It will address 90% of anything you need on your truck.
Hello Suzuki Fans, the new Second Edition Service Manual is out replaceing the old (First English Manual Made). She did her job and now retiring...The New Version is much better and comes in coil binding. Nice new design too. Here is the new link http://www.lulu.com/content/1764718 Cheers, Don
Suzuki Manual 2nd Edition Don, I just received my manual (Full Factory Edition) and noted it says 1st edition. Are there any differences between the two? Thanks. Half Life ________ roor bong
Hello Halflife, The First edition was the very first book published and now James has 15 manuals out. After receiving emails on what people wanted to see more of he rewrote the manual and added about 30 pages or so. Originally the publisher said it wouldn’t be printed until March, we didn’t even know until the other day:frustration:. I’ve only seen the draft and do not have my own copy yet (On its way)op:. The graphics and diagrams are all updated and much better electrical diagrams. The new manual only comes out in the coil bound version so it’s easier to work on the vehicle with the book. The good part of the new manual is it covers all models from 90 to 98 (I drive a 97). When I get my own copy I’ll post more info. Cheers, Don
