Had I known half the things wrong with this vehicle, I would've offered only about $750 or so. I paid $2k. Oh well, live and learn. I've learned a HUGE amount after buying my first wasserboxer. Anyhow, I used AlumaSeal for the leaking head, and it stopped leaking. Very nice. We'll see how long it lasts. In the meantime, I'll be starting a new head fund. :) Bradley Flubacher State College, PA -----Original Message----- From: Vanagon Mailing List [mailto:vanagon@GERRY.VANAGON.COM]On Behalf Of kenneth d lewis Sent: Thursday, November 30, 2000 10:40 AM To: vanagon@GERRY.VANAGON.COM Subject: Re: Aluma Seal, Bar's Leak, Blah, Blah, Blah.
Terry; Personally, if I was buying a vehicle and found out the owner takes "short-cuts" like using Bars Leak, I would RUN not walk away from the deal. Who knows what other kind of time bombs are waiting for me. There is nothing worse than having to play catch up (for next two+ years) on a vehicle you just purchased. No offense intended, just my maintenance philosophy.
