Description

Since 1969 How to Keep Your Volkswagen Alive has provided humorous step-by-step repair and maintenance instructions for all air-cooled VW's built through 1978, for novice and veteran mechanics alike. Taking a philosophical view of mechanics to demystify the notion that only gearheads can repair cars, this eminently straightforward and practical guide explains everything from what's a wrench? to complete engine overhaul procedures for most models built from 1965-1978.

In 21 quirky chapters, the author covers diagnostic, maintenance, and repair procedures in simple, illustrated detail, and includes extras like How to Buy a Volkswagen, as well as a politically astute history of the Volkswagen. This edition contains a new section on the electrical system, plus a revised resource list of VW clubs, magazines, books, and parts suppliers for anyone wishing to restore or modify a Volkswagen. All updates to this edition were tested and approved by a certified VW mechanic.

Anecdotal descriptions, clear, easy-to-follow language. and whimsical illustrations make reading this book fun as well as educational -- underneath the car or elsewhere.

1980 edition, some wear.
