Subject:      water cooled head leaks???
Content-type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1; format=flowed

For my general education as I shop around I'm wondering how serious coolant leaks from head gaskets in water cooled Vanagons should be considered.

If a vehicle is running okay and typically only requires the addition of a small amount of coolant every so often is this something that requires removal/reassembly of the heads with new gaskets? Does this typically precede total head gasket failure?
