Just a note to share another road adventure with some
creative vanagon types!

For those in the know, Susans Westfalia acres was as
usual wonderful ;-)

For those that aren't ya really need to come to the
only VW only campground I know of.

This trip had a few less vanagons than in the past, we
did have Jon's greasel (was on used motor oil and duck
fat this time) and Loren's very cool compact quick
release CB antenea (and cocktail hour flag :-)

Now on to my tech question... coolant, if ya can't see
where it's dripping from odds are it's being consumed
internally.  Is that a valid deduction?  I'm losing
about a pint of coolant (as per my overflow) a month.
My van doesn't run hot or poorly (as you would expect
from bad compression or water introduced into the
combustion process).  Sooo... where could it be going?

Also, has anyone installed a eberspacher from scratch
under their vanagon?

If so, how was it and do these work well?

Thanks,
Brian
