You said you had uploaded the 126 manual, too.

What is the link for that?

Thanks,

   Note that the Early Model Years libraries seem to be broken due to

The index won't run on a Mac, but you can open the pdfs.

You need a winders box or a VM running windoze 7 or so,  Xp will work 
too.

You should be able to follow the link then download the files/folders. The

That might make a stiff ride since 240 is lighter weight?  Or, wrong length?
What about euro?  When we did slave cylinder it was special part for the euro.
