Subject:      '78 Owner's Manual ready to go!

Hey all, Thanks to James McGill, the 1978 VW Type 2 owner's manual that I scanned over the summer is now ready for access.

You have two choices: James has unzipped the file I sent him and has an index of all the image files which can be accessed depending on what you are looking for (look at the contents files first) OR you can download the whole ZIP file from the FTP site.

For some reason, I did not scan pages 80, 82, and 83. Perhaps they were blank or perhaps I had a brain fart. I don't remember why I didn't scan them as the scanning was done last summer. But all the important stuff is there I believe.

BTW, for anyone in the US who still believes VW recommended 91 octane gasoline for their vehicles, please visit page 26 and that should dispel that myth. Be sure to read the whole thing. Be aware that the US uses the CLC rating method for octane numbers.

OK, the address for viewing the individual pages is:

http://www.conservatory.com/vw/manual

and the FTP address to download the entire zip file (5 megabytes) is:

ftp://ftp.conservatory.com/vw/manual.zip

Have fun!
