I am looking for a factory shop manual for my 2000 astro awd (on the cheap!), and haven't seen any on ebay. there are, however some 1999 and 2001 books. will these be the same?

in fact hook me up with that link to the 2001 shop manual - as I quick search of eBay failed to turn it up.... Cheers!

There are probably almost no differences in the 1999, 2000 and 2001 vans. The only difference I know of is the fuel injection system changed with the "X" engine around 2000 or 2001. Look for the 8th digit in your VIN. If it is an "X" go with a 2001 manual. If it is a "W" go with the 1999 manual.
