What an original (and short...) reply to a highly technical post...:-) Don't worry, be happy! (even if your beloved vanagon goes Kaput and you get stranded out in the wild...:-) I'd like to agree with you, but I can't. You see, the battery system (as many others) is crucial for proper operation of the car (and MY comfort out there in the woods. I hate push starting uphill with no one to help me...). I believe in preventive measures, not in crisis control (unless it's sprung on you). If the battery system is sick, it will defenitely hit you when you're the least prepared. It's not only expensive (about $150 for a new battery) but also a nusiance getting stuck. The Vanagon electrical is sick from the beginning. If I can do something about it, I will. But thanks for the comforting remark. cheers, T-man ____________________________________________________________________ Get free email and a permanent address at http://www.netaddress.com/?N=1 |
