Bart,

You sound like a Newbie to this list. Welcome aboard!

Hang with us and we will in no time at all have you up to speed to
really keeping your van alive and well - and doing most of your work
yourself - with competence.

Certainly someone here can answer your request. I'm to far away to help.
But we have lots of folks scattered across the country who are in the know..

John
