There is a 1982 service manual in the motherlode, which for many things is the same as the 1986

 

Many public libraries have factory service manuals, though sometimes only in their main location. Some even have them online. Ask a librarian how to access the manuals

 

eBay has a Haynes for $20 and a Clymer with torn cover for $20

 

Amazon no longer carries a good selection, all they have is 1981, 1983, 1984, 1985, and a Chilton's for $27 which covers all 720

Hey! I'm new to the forum. I just picked up a 1986 720 and was wondering if someone has a PDF of the service manual for it. Sorry if this has already been asked/posted. 

 

Thanks! 

Check the previous page (12) it has been posted before along with a bunch of others.

Dguy210, 

 

hello! Thanks for posting that updated link. I was able to access the file but it says file not supported. Do you know what it would need to be opened with? Or if maybe it has been corrupted? 
 

google drive just poops out and says files not supported. 
 

thanks for your time!

try this link

720 pickup - Google Drive

 

If you still get "not supported", install a PDF viewer app

 

 

 

 

The other link is to It as a *.rar file format, which is a compressed format for the PDF. Winrar or 7-zip is the classical one to decompress. 

 

The other file in the directory is just a PDF file and should open with Acrobat or any PDF viewer or even in most browser windows.

 

For example; in Firefox, Brave browser, and Edge, this opens directly to the PDF (See pic).

I have a service manual. Looking for an owners manual.

Owner's manuals just tell you where the steering wheel is and what those pedals on the floor are for. 

 

@DatsuNissanLove sorry interpreted that wrong, @datzenmike is right though only useful for collection reasons not for information. Looks like you can get one on Ebay pretty easily, or maybe someone has one (I only have a really beat up 1974 620 one).

Thank you for bringing this to my attention. I apologize for this not working correctly the first time.

 

I own the drive this links to, I've set it to general access and can see your request, but it should have been general access all along. 

 

It should be set to be viewable by anyone with the link, but I was able to replicate it asking for permission, which it did not do the first time I opened in a different browser. 

 

Please try this link and let me know if it works as general access, other than restricting editing (which means it can be deleted by another user) anyone with the link should be able to see and download it. It currently opens for me on a different browser/user access so should work now.

Please let me know if any other (recent) links are not easily accessible right off (old links Google drive likes to break occasionally).

Hey Dguy210, do you still have the manual for the 86? I tried clicking on the link and it didn’t work. Any help by chance? Thank you!

Link is working for me, won't preview but will download. I tired it on a couple of browsers and a private window with nothing logged in and still works. So not sure what needs to be changed. 

 

Try this alternate link instead to see if this works: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1kQgMk0HLn7v_5GzKKzDVWUbT3Ih781Av/view?usp=drive_link
