I was  going to remove the hoses from the AC on my 83.5 and have them
re-made.  They both have splices in them and I figured that's where the  leak
was.  Well I did a quick pressure check and not only is there  still 134a in
the system the pressure was reading above the green and a  little into the
yellow. OK, I possibly still have refrigerant in there. The  belt broke a few
months ago and I need to replace it. What size is the belt  going to the
compressor? Is it one my VW friendly FLAPS will have or is it  a mail order
item?







Bryan, here is the info your  looking for.  The belt I have listed on my
_Vanagon Items Forsale_ (http://members.aol.com/Fkc43/sales.htm)  webpage  comes
from NAPA. >> Belt, air conditioning, 83 -91 waterboxer, 12.5 ~13 x  1153, 025
260 849B   -  $30.98
As you see I have the size listed there.  Most often I have this  IMPORTANT
info listed on my site, so keep it book marked for reference
