Elmo movie projector service manual search

Looking at what they charge to repair those projectors, you might consider getting something that's a little easier to find parts for. Lamps can be ridiculously expensive. There are some important drive belts in an Elmo and they haven't been manufactured for a long time so if you get it running, there's no telling how long it will last.

Perhaps a better alternative is to have your 8mm and Super8 professionally transferred to digital. My local Costco offers transfers to DVD from 8mm, Super8 and 16mm. It isn't cheap, but their contractor does a great job.

digmypix.com advertises $10/reel for 50' 8mm reels. They offer both DVD and Blu-ray.

I've seen some stuff done by Pacific Imaging of McMinnville, OR and they do good work (including restoration).
