You want the Bently Vanagon manual that covers all Vanagon 1980-1991
air-cooled, diesel and water boxers; 2 wheel drive and syncro. The really nice
thing is it covers the diesel engine really well.  It also covers the camper
things like the fridge and other camper specific items.  An invaluable
addition to the serious vanagon owner. Here it is-  "the VW bible"
http://www.bentleypublishers.com/product.htm?code=vv91   It says $99.00 but
I'm sure I paid less than that.  I'm sure someone else out there knows where
to get one at a price.  Joel Hembel
