I thought I would start a technical help topic on the Lister SL series. I have no expertise other than my own experience in dealing with my recently acquired piece of iron and a surprising amount of aluminum. Please feel free to post your frustrations, workarounds and fixes. Hopefully it might help a few LS owners in the future.. The LD series is also covered in the manuals and it might be useful to include this model as well.

Manuals:
The original Lister manuals are a long way from modern Toyota or Honda standards. I found using the Lister service manual in conjunction with the parts manual is a big help. Hopefully the information here will compliment the manuals.

The kind folks at the Internal Fire Museum have a wide selection of manuals including both the SL parts and service manuals but you need to register first before you can download. They provide the service for free or with a voluntary contribution.
