What else can I say about my 80 Vanagon?
What I thought and hoped was hyd lifter problem, turns out to be a rod
knock.
I had the heads done 9 months ago and am not in a position to sink $$ for an
engine. Now I know I should have had the whole thing done, shopped around
for the best price etc etc.... But this was all before I knew of this kewl
list!
Arghhh!
I will be leaving the ranks of the vanagon crowd for a while, unless I can
convince wife (my kids love it.) Now if I could find one with A/C PS
recently rebuilt conversion engine for $1500, in CA I'd buy it.
