My Bentley is a VV90, but shows the OXS on the 90 diagram (figures).
Apparently subsequent publications (the VV91) corrected the diagram as per
Mark's comments. Guess I better buy a VV91 to replace my out of date VV90.
But like parts books and fiche, I throw nothing away, so my library expands
(again).
Thanks for the input Mark :-)
