So I will have more time for my '83 <SPAN class=misspelled>Vanagon</SPAN>. First, a request for advice, please. Yesterday, I was <SPAN class=misspelled>supergluing</SPAN> the rubber insulation strip on the driver's side door as it was hanging down from my immediate left to just behind me as I drive. I guess I got some super glue in the door lock button slot, and now I cannot unlock the door there from without or within. Someone told me that lighter fluid, <SPAN class=misspelled>unlit</SPAN>, might dissolve super glue. Does it? I don't need to be advised to be more careful with the glue, thanks!<BR><BR><BR><BR>Best,<BR><BR><BR><BR>Bob<BR></DIV></div>
