This is my first bus conversion and would like to have one on hand and to study. So much to learn. Thank you for your response. If I get stuck with a specific question I might contact you!

I bought my set on eBay last year, I had searched for 1991 international 3800 manuals. There were a lot of changes in 1990 to the bus chassis but the engine itself stayed nearly the same, and the separate dt360 book mentions years back to 86 so that book may be same. I can't remember what the chassis number was called in 88, s1700? Someone like cowlitz coach would know for sure or your hood may have an emblem on it .

One thing to note is that your bus is 2 manufacturers, international sold bare chassis which were shipped to a body builder like ward, bluebird, carpenter , Wayne, etc where the bus body was built on, so my service books are great for troubleshooting engine and drivetrain , but have zero about bus wiring, heater motors etc as those were part of the body. Both my busses are international 3800s, one is a carpenter body the other is a bluebird body..

I got my manuals here.

And like chris said, there will also be a body manual offered by whoever your manufacturer is. I usually find those somewhat useless though.

Allegedly you can get a log in for Navistar and have access to all the service manuals. I've yet to contact a dealer to try but that's the process.

Uh, no. They're in book form, like 1000+ pages. I don't have a problem scanning a page or two out of it, but I'm not spending hours to scan and then organize it all into pdf format. Reprints are still available for purchase here https://www.binderbooks.com/bb-cts-4209.html
