Thornycroft 230 (leyland/bmc based?)

[zenith_adelaide]

My boat has a Thornycroft 230. Not sure what variant, the plate just says 230. Does anyone know much about these engines? Or if there is a workshop or user manual floating around on the web? Or some site with info? Tyring to get hold of any info whatsoever.

Also does anyone know of a parts supplier in Australia or will ASAP supplies ship worldwide?

ASAP will ship parts anywhere.

Evidently, the Thornycroft 230 was based on the. Leyland "272", 3.77 litre diesel.

Thanks so much for the links. The first one worked best. The last one gave me a virus morning so beware.
What are the typical parts of this engine that I should keep as handy spares?
