Volvo MD22L Service Manual

Anyone know where I could download one?

Trawled all the usual sites and find plenty for other engines - I am mystified why I can't find this one.

Thanks

Apart from the alternator and gearbox it is the same as the Perkins Prima or even in unmarinised form the Montego 2L Diesel, if you can find those on line.

As Robin has said, the engine is (I believe) basically the Perkins engine used in the Montego/Maestro and assorted vans. As such there is a Haynes manual available too.

Thanks for the tips, based on your advice I have already found a haynes manual for the montego engine, but still hoping to find something on the marinised Perkins or Volvo.

I also have an MD22P (Saildrive) and I cannot find an online manual anywhere. All I want to find out is whether there is a sprung "clutch" plate (without the cluth of course). Last season there was a terrible rattle that appeared to be coming from around the top of the sail drive.

When I lifted the boat the saildrive anode was rattling around so I THINK this was the cause of the rattle. However having wrapped a warp around the prop earlier in the year (and stopped the engine dead!) I wondered if compression springs on the "clutch" cover plate may have cracked!!!.

So first off I want to find out if there is a plate and if so how could I check whether it is damaged... Hence the manual

I checked Volpen out but MD22 is sadly not there... Have posted the question...

Reassuring to know that it isn't just me who can't find a manual.

It just seems that it is really odd that a relatively popular engine has nothing on the internet when there is plenty on other engines.

Conspiracy???

What is needed is a really friendly Volvo marine engineer to scan the manual ond post it to Volpen or something similar... Hey ho... Lets live in hope...
