not that I know of, I think for the most part you have to drop the $30 for it.

Similar question - How well will the Seloc cover me for a 1965 900 Merc?

Re: Old mercury manuals

While better than nothing, the third party manuals are not very good. Try to get an OEM manual. I would try Ebay first.

Re: Old mercury manuals

I personally steer away from both Seloc/Clymer manuals. From what I've learned here they tend to cover a range of engines in those books and not specific to any year or HP model. Sort of like the Haynes/Chiltons manuals for the automotive world.

The factory service manuals are the way to go. Those cover all the details of your particular engine. :)

Check to see of your local library has a subscription to the EBSCO small engine repair reference center. They have service manuals that go back the the mid 50s.
