If this is the first time you are working on an unfamiliar type of vehicle, take MILLIONS of digital pictures of how it comes apart to help you when it comes time to put it all together. You can never have too many detail shots. When the job is finished, you can delete them or keep them as a momento of your first rebuild.
A picture is worth a thousand words. As opposed to a film camera or video record, you can take them for free and blow them up on the computer, compare them to a parts book or manual, and print them on plain paper to get all greasy in the rebuild. You might have greasy hands when dissambling parts, so might be a good idea to get your Wife/Girlfriend/Beer Drinking Assistant to take pictures for you.
It also helps to tag all wires, cables, pipes, tubes and bolts. Put bolts from a particular part into a ziplock bag and tag it. Don't assume that you will remember how it went together again tomorrow, next week or even years from now (face it, it happens
