It's not hard but it is tedious and I am tempted on some pages just to write the English rather than try to reconstruct the charts etc etc etc

Let you know when I am done, will make a .pdf out of it.

Yes it's the old BW Tech manual: 183 pages: description and service.

I'm a fast translator but a slow typist, on some things, I may Xerox the whole book after I wrote it and send it to Everett that way, some fast typist can retype my hand-printed translation, or you guys will all retire before the translation comes oiut, lol.

Comes from using a QWERTY keyboard (US) but having learned on an AZERTY keyboard (Euro).

So I'm the fastest hunter-and-pecker you ever saw!

Which TDv manual is it (there are a couple of them)? I can also help out with translation if you find the need.

Site is still up but hasn't been updated in a couple of years. Dead but it doesn't know yet. I believe the owner moved on to other interests.

This is Beschreibung and Bedienung. What manuals do you have that are different and can I get a copy?

I know 3 TDv manuals for a vw 181, maybe there are more?

Part 1: Description
Part 2: Service
Part 3: Maintenance and (field)repairs.


Part 1 and 2 were combined in a single manual (TDv 2310/001-12). The original part 3 manual (TDv 2310/001-30) is not that easy to find.

You have the first manual (part 1 and 2: Beschreibung und Bedienung)

edit: found a few more references...

http://webspace.webring.com/people/uv/vwtyp181/181_4-2.htm

There is a parts manual (simular of the genuine VW parts manual), there are also a few radio install manuals.

As can be seen in the link posted by Doc, there are multiple editions of some of the TDv manuals. I have come across pdf versions of the different 1983 edition TDv, but I can't say that I have seen any earlier editions floating around the web. I suspect, like most all vw related literature, earlier editions contain useful info that didn't always get included in later editions. I can see if I can track down some links for you, if you would like.

Please yes.

I am also looking to access Google's Wayback machine to get older archives that are there, or were listed as part of the AMHS computer archive that covers 1978-1999. hard to access, tho.

For Silver Thing and everyone else:

I was extremely ill for a long time and fortunately have not died.
I am mending very very quickly and will make a total recovery within one year.

I have lots of sit-down time, but I have lost the German versions fo the Typ 181 manuals.

IF YOU HAVE THESE MANUALS, PLEASE CONTACT ME!

I will finish these manuals and then distribute them so you don't have to pay 75.00 for a manual that has no copyright...

This one will be FREEEEEEEEEE

GUYS AND GALS HELP ME MAKE THIS HAPPEN. Fight the people who take the fun out of being an amateur lover of the Thing!

No honest merchant has to pimp people to make a living. There are plenty of honest merchants who do ok on this site and others like.

Then there are the others.
