Well I just got my second VW (first was a 77 Bug) but my first Vanagon.... but with any car that is 18 years old it has some problems....

1. It starts and runs for about 2-3 minutes and dies.. give it about 10 min and it works for another 3 minutes. So I have to fix that first... yes there is gas in it...

2. The gas gauge is broke... I will need to fix this.. this would drive me nuts. Has any one ever had to fix one? YES THERE IS GAS IN IT!!!!!!! So don't make one comment about there not being gas!!!

3. Some interior lights, brake lights (kinda dangerous) and few other little things electrical don't work? I wonder if I need to just pull the instrutment cluster and check all the wires and fuses...

SO if you could be of any assistance to me that would be great... Oh yean and were still looking for someone in Columbus that wants to help replace heads!! YEAH...
