    Item arrived on time, well packaged. Very poor description on what I was purchasing, and NO PHOTO of the item. When Item arrived, I noticed the manual was for a Toyota Landcruiser with a GASOLINE ENGINE. Mine has a DIESEL ENGINE. No where in the description was a statement about this manual being for gasoline engines. I inquired to the seller about what exactly they had for sale and was only told it was a maintenance manual...NOTHING about being for a gasoline engine at all !!!
