LOL! and I hear ya, Bob.
As much as I&T rips off the IH manuals, I've been amazed at how they can be completely opaque on things where the IH manuals are merely vague. Their comment, "The engineering will be obvious upon disassembly," is a favorite of mine. Not. Especially when disassembly isn't going as it appears it should.
That said, if one is going deep enough into a tractor and working one's way back out(resurrecting a fencerow find might be an example) I've found enough little nuggets/gems in the I&T (Ex: the IH-8 on the Letter Series, the tables with identifying stampings that identify different battery ignition distibutors and the degree and RPMs of spark advances), that it has been worth having, whether for my own work or having at hand to help out folks with questions here on the board.
I tend to go to the IH manuals first and, in life, the parts manuals with their pictures that illustrate where things really go and the part number listings, have been as useful as the manuals.
Still, the I&T has got by carcass out of a couple of jams.
I figger if he already has it, it's worth him keepin' it.
Even to drive unruly hogs until he finds that odd something useful in it.
