1500HL Workshop Manual

#1 Post by Jackinthebox »

Is there such a thing as an AKM3627 Workshop Manual that can be downloaded. I have a Toledo workshop and parts manual but can only find a Parts Manual for the Dolomite. Thanks. :wink:

I'm not sure about online to download, but there's usually a few original manuals on ebay from about £12 to £40.

I have a ring bound 1500 version available amongst the late Jon Tilson's things (along with one for the original (1854) Dolomite...)

Tenner inc postage on either...

Sorry Murdo, the one you have illustrated above is for Triumph 1500, ie the FWD model! RWD models are 1500TC, Dolomite 1500 or Dolomite 1500HL. The FWD is the ONLY long tail Dolomite shaped car badged merely 1500.

Tango and Alun have the correct one for the OP.

Thanks for this Steve, I have managed to download it and it will be useful. I do find the text a little fuzzy and difficult to read but I understand it is possible to sharpen PDF files if you know how. PS I don't go to Specsavers! :jack:

I reduced the file size to make it easier to download sorry if it is now fuzzy.

I think there is a clearer version here: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders ... sp=sharing
