Well, after being stranded once in Alabama and being stuck for 3 hours because of lack of a diagram showing how the serpentine belt is routed, as well as the need to do some maintenance, I resolved to obtain a service manual to carry with me in my 93 Eurovan. A call to Bentley results in learning that their version of the manual will not be out until late this year. So, I called VW Tech Pubs to see if I could get a microfiche version like the dealers use. A very courteous young lady helped me. "Sorry, its no longer available on fiche for your year & model. We do have the dealer service manual available in hardcopy, but its kind of expensive." So, VW gets another $162 of my money and in ten days I'll have a manual. But, I guess I'll cheerfully pay that if it means I can get rolling sooner or if it'll keep me from stopping unexpectedly to begin with!
