Stapling the relevant parts of the repair manual to the wall. I initially did it for the Land Rover’s head gasket job and now do it when I’m doing more complicated jobs. This covers most of what is on !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! .
Please ignore the termite damage it came with the house and I couldn’t be bothered to fix it.
The Land Rover stuff is still up too!
The Land Rover has one of the best service manuals I’ve used, second only to the Saab. The Jag’ s seems... not great so far...
Unfortunately it looks like this is about all I’m getting done today as I can’t find my freaking 3/8" socket set. I might have left it in the Volvo, so I’m headed to storage to see if that is the case.

“The Land Rover has one of the best service manuals I’ve used”
Insert obvious joke here ...

I’ll print out all of the torque specs, laminate them, and keep the sheets handy. My garage wall are white and there are times I’ve used the pocket projector to display instructions up on the wall, too.

Sometimes paper > screen. I had this one printed out for reference during my first transmission rebuild (Thunderbird 4R70W).

Yeah. I always try to get a print version and a digital version when I get a car. Print is a little tricky on these newer cars as the manuals are 3000+ pages and not generally printed.

Interesting idea! I don't have enough open wall to pull it off myself, but I like it.
