1972 Yamaha DT3 Service and Repair Manual

Yamaha's part number for this one is LIT-11613-08-01. It serves the 1972 DT3 and, in the same volume, the DT1, DT2, RT1, RT2 and RT3 across 1971, 1972 and 1973.

Read the frame plate and confirm DT3 before you rely on any figure in the book. Once that is done, the model columns tell you which specification belongs to your machine.

Coverage

• Engine removal, inspection and reassembly in factory order
• Wear limits and running clearances
• Torque tables
• Carburation and ignition timing
• Frame, suspension, brakes and wheels
• Wiring diagram and component test values
• Fault diagnosis by symptom

Cross-model coverage helps more than it hurts on these bikes, since so much hardware carried between the DT and RT lines and the manual makes those overlaps visible.
