Justin,

Welcome to the list!

As for the manuals, I have and use them all as each has it's place.
the Bently is the top of the line technical bible (too technical at times);
the Haynes (both air/water cooled versions) is the blue collar / user friendly
book;
the Chilton's is too general for anything but a bird cage;
the Typ 2 Mod. 86-87 and 88-92 (sold by Björn Ratjen <bratjen@DIRECT.CA> a
list member).

Big Pine Key, FL

87 GL Syncro leaker-Pee'er
85 Westy
etc...
