One of the recurring questions I see on CruisersForum is, “does anyone have a manual for xxx?”

Anyone locating an on-line equipment manual is asked to post information here.

Anyone seeking a manual, is advised to look here.

Looking for a service manual for a Volvo MD31A

OK, I was looking before at a boat that had an MD30A in it, but now it looks like I'll be buying one with an MD31A in it, a wholly different animal.

I've looked on the usual websites for the manual without luck.

Anyone out there know where I can find a service manual for a Volvo MD31A?

Many thanks,

Allan

Nice try Gord, but the MD31A is very different from the MD2010, MD2020, MD2030, and MD2040. But please keep your eyes peeled.

Thanks for looking,

Allan

OMC Saildrive - Zephyr

The OMC Sail Drive (also known as the Zephyr) was built from 1977 thru 1984. It utilizes a 32 cubic inch powerhead (which commonly powers the 20/25/30 hp outboards). Parts are getting kinda scarce for these drive units, but maintenance type parts are reportedly still available. You may find certain gaskets will have to be custom mad. A service manual which covers all model-year sail drives is available under p/n 983669 (about $45). Any Johnson/Evinrude dealer can order it for you, just see the parts manager and give them this p/n. Also, the computer system indicates they're ONLY AVAILABLE thru the main warehouse in WI, make sure the parts guy knows this.

Including:
1978 Sail Drive 15S10S & G
1978 Sail Drive 15S11C
1983 to 1984 Sail Drive
1980 to 82 Sail Drive
