Trouble again volks. I know you people can help. 81 air cooled. N. Texas. Got in the van to drive home from a friend's house in town today and Elly wouldn't start. She didn't even try. The battery voltage is at 12.26. I beat on what I think is the starter (approx. 4" cylinder with a smaller cylinder attached to it that can be seen by looking up under the passenger side rear wheel well) a few times and it now turns a little but not fast enough to start. If anyone has any suggestions to help me get home tonight please let me know. Thanks in advance, dylan -- Dylan Spurgin 81 Westy - "Elly" The Electric Elephant spurgin.net/westy1.htm -- |
