Yay - I finally found some Starion manuals

[MrBishi]

At a local swap meet I came across a JA service manual, chassis manual and a JD service manual - $35 lot. If anyone needs info from them let me know & I'll scan.

Was this a starion swap meet ???

[djalpha]

Please don't tell me they where at the toowoomba swapmeet!

[MrBishi]

No it was the Beenleigh swap last sunday.

Was a welcome change to actually find something I needed between Holden/Ford bits.

Man, can you scan and create a PDF or put on a CD?

Deeks do we have space to host something like this?

[Camotec]

probably not, however they can be hosted on my server with no limits and ofcourse no cost.

[decoy]

apparantly we've got unlimited space on this server, just that its not that reliable, eg. when the site is unaccesable sometimes. Other then that there's room.

I have the equipment at work to scan said manuals but it's a matter of a lack of time to do it. I thought there was a set of manuals that had been scanned some time in the past? If I did undertake this large job I certainly wouldn't want to redo work already done. For instance the 1986 manual is about 25mm thick.

I think the simplest method of distribution is via CD. Cost would mainly be postage.

In summary - are there any manuals already scanned?

MrBishi,
can you check in the JD manual and see what compression ratio it says the engine is?

thanks.

[Cookiemonster]

Yeah.. good question..

[MrBishi]

To settle all bets - Intercooled Starions delivered to Australia in 1986 had a C/R of 7.6:1. If anyone has any arguments I'll scan the proof.
