New 912 Owner - looking for .pdf documents

I recently picked up a July '65 built three gauge 912. I'm looking for .pdf files of the owners manual, or any shop manuals and wiring diagrams.

Specifically at this moment I need to identify the various lights in the gauges.

Thanks for any help in advance!
JD

Here's the link to the Factory parts manual (1969) in PDF, with exploded diagrams
https://www.porsche.com/all/media/pdf/originalparts/usa/911-1_USA_KATALOG.pdf

Porsche sells a reproduction 1967 Drivers Manual, part number WKD460520. for an earlier edition, perhaps eBay

You can buy reproduction WKD-480-520 Factory Workshop Manual for 911 1965-1971. Volumes 1-2 WKD480520. There was a 912 supplement, perhaps one available on eBay

I have three of the early 1965 manual available for sale, Edition 111/65. I always though I would buy an early 912 but found a 68 SWT instead.

i would suggest the following book Porsche 912 Workshop Manual 1965-1968 (Paperback) by Floyd Clymer....it has a lot of info and considered one of the must have books for reference and working on your 912

I’m always pretty skeptical of book suggestions especially when it comes to car stuff, but as 69 Porsche says, this is THE 912 book to buy. I was honestly blown away by how good it is.


https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1588501019/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

It was suggested to me on BBS and I thought I would give it a go. I already have Wayne’s 911 projects book and now with the two of them, I’m not sure I need anything else.
