Sorry to all you veterans out there, but I need/want to catch up!

Where did the term "Stook" come from?

What is the "Helm's manual"?

Thanks in advance!

 

Helm manual is the service manual.
Stook is just a nickname based on the "s2k" sound- some like to use it, some find it too coarse.

Welcome!

S + 2 + K became stook. I don't use it, cuz I don't like it.
Helm is the company that produces the manual.

 

Where do you get the Helm manual? Is it just the owner's manual that came with the car?

 

I also have a newbie question. you guys alwasy keep saying something about MY01 , what is this? thanks

 

The Helm service manual can be ordered on the net at http://www.helm.com . I've also seen it available at a few Honda dealership parts department. This is a much more detailed service manual than what you would find in the owner's manual.

BTW welcome aboard!

 

MY = Model Year

Thanks for the welcome note! Part of the reason I got the s2k last week was this club and all the great information available. Especially learning from others experiences - good and bad!

I'd like to get together sometime. My time is quite hectic right now. I work at a hospital and we don't have enough people to get the daily work done, so you know what that means...

all work and no play leaves only s2k!

 

I'd wait a month or two before buying the Helm. I have 3 of them for the S2000. The main one is the 00-01 and has all the info on the hardtop. It will probably have the updates for the 2002 MY. Check with them about when it goes to print.
