Mazda 323 — 1988 Workshop Manual (Multi-Engine / Multi-Drivetrain Coverage)
A quick fit check starts with the way the book is structured: coverage is split by engine family (B6 variants + turbo) and by transmission/driveline type (manual, automatic, manual 4WD), with dedicated sections for axle/propeller shaft hardware and full wiring diagrams. The result is a reference-style layout where specs, system boundaries, and diagrams stay grouped instead of being blended across the vehicle.
Vehicle/Variant Scope (as organized in the book)
Content is partitioned by engine and drivetrain rather than being a single “one-size” track:
- Engine paths: B6 EGI, B6 DOHC, B6 FI, plus EGI Turbo fuel/emissions coverage
- Drivetrain paths: Manual, Automatic, and Manual 4WD
- Separate driveline hardware sections include Propeller Shaft and Front/Rear Axles
Section Map: Where the Heavy Reference Material Lives
The contents page shows a full workshop-style system ladder: engine and supporting systems (lubrication, cooling, fuel/emissions), engine electrical, clutch, transaxle variants, driveline/axles, steering, brakes, wheels/tires, suspension, body, body electrical, plus standalone Technical Data, Special Tools, and Wiring Diagram sections.

Driveline and 4WD boundaries (useful for matching)
The book doesn’t treat driveline as a footnote: manual 4WD sits in its own transaxle section, and propeller shaft is separated from axle coverage. That layout is a strong sign the drivetrain references are organized to prevent mixing 2WD and 4WD hardware paths.
Fuel/Emissions partitioning (NA + turbo separation)
Fuel and emission content is split into EGI and EGI Turbo blocks, helping keep turbo-specific references distinct from the naturally aspirated EGI path. For buyers, that separation is a practical “scope signal” when the vehicle build depends on turbo vs non-turbo documentation staying isolated.
