Actually, the Bentley is the ONLY book that covers the water-cooled Vanagon, other than the almost totally useless generic Chilton import book. (The Clymer that somebody mentioned covers air-cooled only.) It is a bit technical, but is very complete (phone book-sized, over 1100 pages), and the only game in town. I have a wholesale account with the distributor, and sell the book for $62 plus shipping. (Cover price is $90.) Email me directly for ordering info. -Ron Salmon
