Default Looking for O360 operator's manual

Having constructed an ECi kit, I find myself needing an operator's manual for an O360. Does anyone know where a PDF of this for download is available? I searched google but didn't find one.

Default I have Superior Manual

If that will work for you. Not sure why it wouldn't, they are all Lyc clones. Give me an email address if you want it, its a large file, a bit over 3 GB.

I found parts catalogs and overhaul manuals on the Lycoming website, but no operators manual.

I bought mine on Ebay as a bound booklet.

Good Luck

An official Lycoming 0360 Operators Manual is available from ACS.

It is a good read, has many performance charts and accessory drawings - and with the Lycoming Flyer, there isn't much left unknown about operating the engine.
