I looked high and low for torque and gap settings and did Google searches galore.

Some yahoo on the Roadfly forum actually posted a link to a Yahoo search result, which of course didn't have the info. I needed either.

I honestly don't feel comfortable working by myself on any cars other than the B5 S4 because the public knowledge base just doesn't exist.

I feel the same way. People wonder how I do so much on my car, simple, good resources.

My point was that on the B5 S4 AW forum, I don't even have to buy a manual. That was all.
