According to one of my Haynes manuals - "Only Haynes completely strip and
rebuild the car for each manual". They dont say _how_ they strip it
(Oxy-Acetelyne?) or if it runs after they rebuild it...
Watch out for the under-stated "Engine removed for clarity" alongside some
of the pictures - it points at the operation being such a PITA that its
easier if you pull the engine (rather like changing the air filter on an
Ur-q).
