This manual includes all the mechanical and bodywork data for these two related engines, sharing a 76 mm bore and 77 mm stroke for 1,397 cm³ displacement.
Essential for any workshop work on the R5 Alpine or R5 Alpine Turbo, the MR193 covers the timing, the carburettor fuel system, the NG5 5-speed gearbox, the running gear, the braking and the bodywork.
