Hi all, On a trip from Virginia to Memphis, the Subie Vanagon blew a head gasket. It still runs fine, but consumes about 1 gallon of coolant every 20 miles (this would be fine if the thing ran on water!). A pretty straightforward repair to change the gasket, but I don't know of any shops in the area. Anybody have any recommendations? Thanks for any ideas. You can p-mail with thoughts to jjvapi123@aol.com John 84 Westaru Charlottesville, VA |
