Many thanks Mike and Rob for your replies. I'll try these and see how I get on. I've tried a few areas with no luck so far, at least this gives me a point in the right direction. Many thanks again. Ron

Hello Ron I purchased a Clymer Mariner Outboard Shop Manual from an ebay auction a couple of years ago for £0.99 plus postage. As at 0954hrs on 24/11/13, the only ebay auctions or "buy it now" for a Clymer Honda Outboard Shop Manual are either from abroad or about one business seller from the UK, both no cheaper than buying it new online. If you keep an eye on ebay each week of put what you are looking for in your "Wish list", there is a chance a private seller in the UK will put one on auction. If you want to get it even cheaper you can use auctionstealer.com to put your maximum bid for you in the last 20 seconds, like I often do. Hope this helps. regards Rob

Hi Ron. After a little search on Google and Amazon I came up with a Spanish site supplying a wide range of manuals. The manual I got was for the 75/90 series. Cost to download the pdf file was about £12, so not a bad deal. Sorry I can't find the original link! Regards Mike

Hi guys, We bought our Hardy Pilot last year and had the engine checked over by an engineer prior to buying the boat, the engine had been recently serviced so everything was fine. At the start of this year and just to make sure that everything was as it should be I had the engine serviced by a Honda engineer. I'm now at the point where I'd feel comfortable doing most of the work where basic maintenance and servicing is required. I also purchased a maintenance and repair book by Jean-Luc Pallas and published by Adlard Coles which is quite useful. My question is, does anyone know where I can purchase or obtain a workshop manual for a Honda 50 outboard. A hard copy would be okay or a website where it's possible to download a copy? Regards Ron
