OT(again '97 GTI)Anyone with a Bentley or experience answer a few Q

[scirocco at powerlink.net (John C. Worden)]

Ok, so my sister hasn't gotten a Bentley yet, but I do have a Haynes which 
is better
than nothing.
Here are the questions:
What are the resistance values for the plug wires and coil wire.  The boots 
for the plug
wires say 5K, but there is usually an acceptable range.
What is the recommended replacement interval for the timing belt?  Haynes 
says 60K
and is probably correct, but I have seen them wrong on this before, by like 
30K.  Oddly
this isn't listed in the maintenance booklet included with the car.
Last one is the gasket between the upper and lower intake manifold-does 
this get replaced
or reused?  The manual doesn't say either way, but does say to recover 
it(probably so it
doesn't go into the motor maybe.  I suspect it needs to be replaced, but 
what the hell, might
as well ask.
Well that's it.  Hopefully someone here can help me out on this.

Thanks
