Hi all,

My 87 Westy has what apparently is the last engine built by Boston Bob. Over the past few months it appears that it has either a bad head (or two) or bad head gaskets on the combustion chamber part of the head. The symptoms are that after a stretch of highway driving, the coolant overflow tank (the one behind the license plate) fills out and spits out coolant from the top vent hole.

In days gone by, I would have done the work myself....but I'm getting a bit told to crawl about under the van these days. So I am looking for a shop that knows what they are doing to fix the problem.

Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance.

Ric
