Hello all,

On monday I bought a 84 Westy after travelling around in a honda civic for a couple of years. What a change! For one thing, since then the van has been to the mechanics twice, and is there again :( Is this typical or will the problems eventually go away if I keep pluggin at it?

I've owned three vw bugs in the past and after the third swore I'd never buy a vw again. I guess I'm addicted cause here I am... At least this time it's water cooled :)

So I'm getting like 10 mpg. I think that's a problem. Any suggestions?

Any other suggestions or tips for a Westy newbie?

Thanks, Leaf~
