Subject: Is a Bentley worth it?
If you can tell one end of a screwdriver from the other, YES. You
don't need to be a mechanic/technician to benefit from reading about
how the Vanagon is put together. But if you want to work into this
slowly, the Haynes is a good alternative. Also...
Have you checked your local public library...??
The Baltimore (Maryland) system has its index online, and I found
pretty good documentation by Mitchell at two branch libraries. The
Mitchell parts locator is dynamite if you are trying to find some
obscure relay or connector! Also the air conditioning reference can
be a great help. Good luck!!
