Haynes manuals are not what they used to be

Just bought a Haynes manual for Mk 7 Fiesta. Compared to the Haynes manuals of old it is no way as good- no exploded diagrams which really help to give you an overview of things - just small poor quality B&W photos.

Its lance (which has 3 sections - handle , middle section (extension) and nozzle) has brass bayonet connectors which dont seem to correspond with any...
