If a fellow had a 1.9l WBX -- an engine that labors mightily when climbing long grades in hot weather -- and if his Westy didn't have A/C . . . and if that fellow was wondering about beefier engines and climate control . . . and if he once managed to change out the engine in his 71 VW bus, but doesn't care to change out another engine in his life unless at gunpoint . . . what options are available to that fellow? (Other than selling his Vanagon and buying another, I mean?) -- Mike "Rocket J Squirrel" Elliott 71 Type 2: the Wonderbus 84 Westfalia: Mellow Yellow ("The Electrical Banana") 74 Utility Trailer.
