Hi Leslie,

I have a 1982 Westfalia here in Dallas.  I have a whole bunch of fuel injection parts here.  For the air boot, you can use gasket maker to seal up the hole.  It is very effective.

As for the other stuff, I have some stuff and you also need to call Angel -
214-271-3643

Also, email me your number and i'll send you mine, so you can see if I have what you need in my stash.

All the best.

They say they are having problems finding two parts, and my two sources, Bus Depot and scott@europeanonly.net have not been able to respond for varied reasons. Bus Depots says check out the wrecking yards, Scott Price seems to still be on vacation.

Also, I recently moved to Dallas, its not like California where they are
used to working on "vintage" vehicles.

Here is the description I have;

1) an air boot or conduit
- a tube that goes from the air flow meter to the intake manifold (fuel
injection type system) , my original is torn open, 81 - 83 air coolled, auto transmission

2) "oil seperator" that goes on the top of the
 engine

I am not a mechanic (anymore) not that I wouldn't if I could.

Information is also much appreciated.

Thank you,

Leslie Schwartz
