Hi All Well I made it all the way from Toronto to almost Calgary with no problems at all. Camped at Kinbrook last night (Very nice) and now it won't start. Battery is 12.7 and it seems to be turning over fine. Coil has black goop oozing out of it, would that be it? Probably going to call my friends at CAA and take it to Tony's auto service, they seem to rate well on Roadhaus. Unless someone has another recco. Any tips in the meantime are appreciated Keep in mind I'm very green to the Vanagon and have very basic skills. I do have tools including a meter if there are any easy suggestions. There are surely worse places to be broken down. Oh, I also need to be at the airport by 2 to pick up my wife. :) Thanks Jason |
