To all,

I recently picked up my first Vanagon (91 GL).  Any essential info I should
know concerning???
*       maintenance (grades/types oils), filters, frequency of changes,
tuneups,...
*       coolant (I have read about potential head gasket problems and need
for phosphate free coolant.  Is there a particular brand of coolant anyone
could recomment).
*       Useful books (I saw Chilton VW book, but only covered VW's up to
late 1980's)
*       Anything else...

Thanks in advance for any info,
Ben Huddell
