Query: Funny drawings - Useless instructions

I got this book due to its brilliant trawings and the first thing I read was "to make a 13 mm wrench you just file a 1/2" wrench a little bit at the claws". This is nonsense, for a "metric" car you use metric tools, period. Stunts like that will only wreck all your precious nuts and bolts. In addition, the writers try to encomass every imagineable type of aircooled Volkswagen, making a total mess of the procedures as these vehicles are pretty varied in their detail design and function. The result is confusion and poor readability. The drawings are brilliant, however they do little less that convey an overall understanding of principle, and rarely show any detail procedures. I guess that John Muir was a competent mechanic and a witty writer, however, this publication didn't help me much. All in all, this is not a repair manual, so if that's what you're after, buy the Haynes.
