Theyre all similar with minor differences here and there. Id say go on amazon and slowly collect them all second hand. I find sometimes if info seems confusing in one it might be easier to understand in another.

I have a binder called service letters and ut has some great information on fuel injection among other things. It has several "training manuals " that fiat used to train their techs back in the day.

I find the shop manual to be the best. I've found that the others appear to be based on it. For the most part it has the most comprehensive info. The exception being some of the others cover tune ups and routine maintenance better.
