Question Engine Analyzer Manual?

I have a Sears Engine Analyzer Model 161.214230 that I bought at a garage sale with no manual. Does anyone have a manual and if so, could you scan and email me a copy? These analyzers were very popular back in the 70's and Sears must have sold thousands of them.

WOW-WEE, Sears just wants $22.99 for the manual! I only paid $8.00 for the unit.

gschooley,
A fellow had a analyzer identical to mine for sale on eBay. I contacted him and he was nice enough to scan the manual as a jpg file and email it to me before the item sold. Many thanks for your offer though.

I too found a Model 161.214230 Analyzer at a yard sale and the manual was missing.
Could you possibly forward the scan of the manual? It would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
