Manual Needed!!!!

Postby micky1stop » Sun Dec 06, 2009 1:00 am

Hi Alll, not sure if I've put this in the right section! But, I'll ask anyway.
Does anyone have, or know where I can get a Workshop Manual, that will cover my Van?
It's a 120 Custom SWB, Semi-Hi top, 1998 'S' reg Petrol 1996cc. It's actually on the V5 as a Mini Bus!!
Anything would be better than nothing, (even a Haynes Manual :lol: would do!!), coz it looks like the Van is going to stay stood on the Garden, unless I can get a few bits n bobs sorted out/checked :roll:
And as most of us know, the Wife ain't to happy about that :wink:
Any ideas /advice/info would be very much appreciated.

Thanx
Micky

You could try Ebay? Got my "as new" Haynes manual for 99p (plus £1.50 postage).

Hi and welcome to the forum. I will be putting my 1998 150 SWB HiTop 2.5Di up for sale this week as I have bought a motorhome at last. Hence I have for sale a genuine Ford TIS workshop manuals CD. I will have to check that it covers your engine type. My Haynes manual does not feature any petrol engines.

I wiil be sorry big time to leave this great forum with so many people giving up their time to help others. Regards to all members.

Thanx for the Info lads.
I have tried 'Sillybay', and just about every other web site I can think off! I'm going cock-eyed looking at all these sites :roll:
All the Manuals I see around the age of my Van, cover nothing but Diesel!!
It looks like I may have to use a couple of Manuals at a time to figure things out. Which ain't gonna be that much fun!

I already have the TIS CD, but, me been me, I'm not sure how to use it properly :? I will have to sit and have a good look at it. But, on 1st impressions, it doesn't cover what I need!!

I've probably bought a vehicle that doesn't have it's own manual, AGAIN :( I often have this problem with my Motorcycles!!
Could be time to give up n try Knitting instead :lol:

i don't think there was a Haynes manual for Petrol Transits that age, however the diesel one wil help you for everything except the engine and some of the wiring diagrams

Does anyone know where I can get, or have a wiring diagram, for a 1998 120 Custom SWB, 2.0 litre Petrol?

Hi, I have the same van. I use the diesel haynes, the petrol haynes something like up to 1989 and I have just bought a scorpio haynes 1994 hoping this will include my 2.0l engine.

The engine was used on galaxy's, and scorpios. There is a very good scorpio web site you can use, just google scorpio its on the first page.

If I find the holy grail, for this engine I'll pass it on here.

cheers
