Subject:      '86 Syncro Mechanic in Northern Virginia
Content-Type: multipart/alternative;

Hi folks,

        I recently purchased a set of large valve heads for my '86 Vanagon
Syncro camper. A coolant leak in one head prompted the repair and I
figured that I would upgrade to the larger valves. My problem is that my
local VW dealer will only install heads that they sell. I recently moved
to Northern Virginia and I haven't compiled a list of reputable repair
places. You know, ones that know that the coolant needs to be phosphate
free and the glue kit must be OEM VW. Any If anyone has had good (or bad)
luck with VW repair places in northern Virginia I would appreciate an
email or two.

Cheers Herb
