3.0 out of 5 stars Chilton's Repair and Tune Up Guide, Volkswagen 1970 to 1981, July 18, 2000

By A Customer

This manual is of value to the do-it your selfer. I found this book useful in many areas. Chapter 4 on emission controls is well written, with lots of handy diagrams. Chapter 5 on the electrical system was not very detailed. When it comes to those nasty electrical problems, you might be left in the dark looking for that bad wire. In general it's a good book for the VW mechanic's library.

Everything went very well, it was just the book had so much grease on it I had a hard time reading some of the articles in it.
