Karl,
Now, I know you are serious. But it gave me a belly laugh. I guess I need to
learn how to do it just in case I run across a dealer mechanic who does not
own a vanagon (like mine.) I just had mine replaced when I had my cooling
pipes replaced (expensive job $650.00) I think a year from now I shall
consult the archives and the list for a how to lesson on coolant replacement
and learn how to do it myself.

Thanks for the awakening.

William Polowniak
