Subject:      Bentley or Haynes?
Content-Type: text/plain; format=flowed

Hello all, I apologize if this topic has been covered a lot over the years but I would like to purchase a manual and would appreciate any advice. I purchased an 88 westy a few months back and I would like to handle most of the future maintenance if possible. I have heard that the Bentley manual is a little novice unfreindly (no index, user is expected to be familiar with described procedure before hand etc., Is this accurate? Being a rather 'green mechanic',would the haynes manual prove a better reference (not to mention less drain on the pocket book)? I am assuming that both books have their pros/cons and I would be willing to buy the Bentley if it is truly more bang for the buck.

Thanks in advance! Kris ______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com
