Looking for a service manual for this outboard if anyone can help thanks ...

The best online resource for Volvo Penta outboards seems to be a Facebook page (dammit ! )  (though you can view it without "joining")

https://www.facebook.com/volvopentaoutboard/

There's a great deal of discussion about them on there, including dropbox links to PDF manuals, like this one:

(though at a quick glance I didn't notice one in English).

 

.....amazing though, something on Facebook that actually looks useful  !!

I was just about to post the same link !  The last contacts I have for spares are quite old so no idea if they are still valid:

Emilsson Motor

Knipplagatan 8.

41474.

Göteborg

Sweden.

 Tel. 0046 31 428095.

 

Another more local one was:

American Marine Imports

Unit 4

Waterloo Park

Bidford on Avon

B50 4JG

 01789 491643 / 491673

 

These were last produced in 1979 and the model was called a 450 so your 400 maybe even older.
