Vintage Volvo Penta question
 
LS

For the past three weeks I have been searching very extensively for
technical documentation on the Internet about a small vintage Volvo-Penta
outboard I acquired some weeks ago. Model Volvo Penta 39.
What I do know by know it is a 3.9Hp, 2-stroke, 1-cylinder outboard motor,
that's about it.
..
The Volvo-Penta seems to have been a more or less identical successor to a
Monark and/or Crescent and/or Archimedes model, and maybe comeone can
support me in finding some technical documentation.
Any sort of Owners Manual, Service-, Repair- or Workshop Manual, or however
they called it at the time would be very welcome in order to prolong the
devices life, and in doing so it might drive my boat for some more years to
come.
As an aid in finding some info about age I might add the Serial No, it's
034153506.

With my sincerest apologies for bothering all of you with my humble request,

Best regards,

Harm

I have just purchased this same exact motor and I know nothing about
it. I too have been searching for any information on this motor and
have found very little. If you find any documentation or a source for
parts, I would appreciate it if you passed it on to me and I'll do the
same for you.

Great,

Let's team-up (Hey I see i'ts you (R), I've just replied to your e-mail
separately and now see this posting)

Today I've been trying to adjust carburator/throttle to run properly in idle
mode, very hard if you don't have the proper procedure to do so. Would you
know how to do that, or someone else who reads this ?

Best regards and happy searching,
Harm
