I know that both my van (85 GL) and my dad's van (84 GL) have that bleeder
valve, so count two more pre-'86 vans in on that. How many other pre-'86
owners have had the pleasure of bleeding their cooling systems and used this
mystery valve? Is it possible that Bently made a mistake? What does the
Haynes book say? I think a second opinion may be necessary here.....
