Volvo 500A idle & Service manual?

[Jeepster04]

Everything Ive read says the idle should be 750 but it never says if thats in gear or out. If I set the idle to ~750 then put it in gear it'll drop to almost 600. Should it be 750 in gear??

Also, how could I get the service manual for this engine? Its a 1990 Volvo 500A. Don gave me a link a couple of years ago but it seems Ive missed placed it(IE, someone has deleted it).

The idle should be 600 to 650 rpm, in gear. Here's that link again.

Ayuh,... Burn 'em on a disc, then if the hardrive crashes, you can reload 'em...

Got them on 2 computers and a thumb drive now.

May burn the main manuals to a disc though, good idea.
