I was just thinking if any of those pat numbers can be donor parts.
I did see the PDFs on our site 😀

I'm finding out that the factory Renault manuals have so much clearer illustrations than the Lotus service manual. I recently picked up these Renault manuals from Ebay just for the transaxle sections.

I wonder if getting the Haynes manual for the Fuego would be more useful for NG3 owners than the Renault manual...

Looking through the Renault 5 (Le Car) Haynes manual, one feature that the Haynes book has that the Renault does not are the photos of the process of work on the transaxle. Much easier to interpret what is going on with the text.

That’s all I wanted to get out there . I have a Lotus manual and at times I feel like I need an interpreter. . Sometimes the pdf does not print out correctly.

Here is the Renault fuego r18 manual link

It has some general service tips also.

However the proper manual must always be viewed.

Not often, but it does happen, Haynes manuals can have incorrect information.  Just something to be aware of.
