I was on the hunt for a Bentley Manual and came across that, they've got a really nice program to download (all Russian!) which has some pretty comprehensive breakdown information, torque settings and disassembly - did I mention its all in Russian

Never did find an English Bentley manual though!

Eg.

[boneybradley]

da...clasnaya pas ruskie. (yes class for russians) 
you do know russia dosen't have any form of copy right law! thats why most things (film's,music and book like this) can be found on russian based sites.....
oh and don't use/rely on translation sites as they are about 60% wrong!! I understand more in proper old ruskie!

[wil0]

those drawings look awesome. they have obviously all been hand drawn too, pretty cool really.
isnt their that program etka or something that has a similar layout and breakdown of parts?
im searching torrent sites as we speak...

[PDWC]

Well I have just spent too much valuable Christmas shopping time on this site and couldn't find anything I could use to help me fix a leaky flange! But I found this quite amusing:

The first step is to verify the presence of valves on the fire, none found.
Then find a leak on the top tube heater, leaking removed (replaced with a clamp on the orig clamping screw), passing just in case replaced the lid broader sideburns (assuming that the tube potek because of the high-pressure system). In the cabin was a little warmer (moved at the end of Europe somewhere in Italy).
Part 2.
Check the thermostat-like open did not immediately (check-bottom tube and feel the need to wait), suggesting that the fire plug driven car at the front of the pier and drive a little bit (on the golf stove that produced one of the top spots cooling system), did not help.
At the same time it was thought two bad and worse: Zasorilas stove-treated replacement (removal of torpedoes in the winter is still fun), or Break pad GBTS (the fire is going to air). But on reflection, if it means laying in the pots should be antifreeze vyvernul candles, checked-no.

Is the poor guy having probs with his heater? How surreal is "removal of torpedoes in the winter is still fun"
