I also highly recommend the UK publication
"VW Transporter 1982 to 1990" (their watercooled
Vanagon manual) by Haynes. Great pictures, and
a "fault finding" section that points to the
same symptoms and causes that occur so often on our busses,
and agree mostly on repair recommendations with our
resident gurus. $26 well spent (Bus Depot)
