    Hi All -

    I'm working on bringing a 420 Auto motor back to life so that I can swap it out for the 390 Auto in my current bike.

    The manuals from this site helped tremendously a few years ago when I got the 390, and I need the same reference material for the 420. Unfortunately the link below from the ref / tech section of the forum isn't working. Is there another way to get to the information, or can one of you share via email?

    Thanks for your help with this

    I will check my paper manuals when I get home tonight, I thought I had it stored on my computer but it has disappeared! Also if I remember correctly, the 420 manual that was on this site was actually for the 390!!

    I have never seen an owner's manual for 420.
    I have an owner's manual for manual gears (8/1980) with pages (5/6) for automatic
    but nothing extraordinary.

    When I bought my 1981 420 AXC in Detroit in 1987, the previous owner (Carl Albert Johansson !!) gave me a 390 Auto OM , so for many years I thought I had a 390, before I checked the SN on internet

    I do not believe there is a workshop manual for the 420, this link shows a 258 being rebuilt. they have the same gearbox as a 420- http://www.teamnorrland.se/Renovera AE.htm This also shows the spring protector required which is available on Ebay. The Swedish military manual for the 258 is also good if you can find one and read Swedish, This link is to the Swedish Husky forum and website. google chrome translates for me http://husqvarna.infosajt.se
    Unfortunately the links to the 258 manuals no longer work.
    I have checked all my paper manuals and cannot find this http://www.cafehusky.com/threads/vintage-husqvarna-1982-420-ae-auto-owners-manual.5180/

    I have the owner's manual for the frame CN 1001+ ( cr 81 and axc 81-82)
    Here's the first page. There's 8 pages on automatics and 70+ pages on manual speed.
    I have it on pdf.
    Not sure it is specific about 420. 390 and 420 are near.

    "I do not believe there is a workshop manual for the 420."
    I have found the document, it was in the loft! But as as I thought it is for the 390, I will scan it at work tomorrow and email to anyone who wants it.
