Where did you get your AiResearch Garrett? I have an AiResearch GT Continental T85-20. I purchased mine through GSA and have no manuals. I am in the process of overhauling the GT. I rebuild industrial GT's and I am looking for rebuild manuals.

@fmullis I purchased two GTP70-9 APUs from a man in Virginia who had four of them back in 1997. He gave me a copy of the overhaul manual and the one starter coupling he had between the four engines thinking that he could start his two with compressed air. I have yet to find another starter coupling.
