Those of you interested in diesels may want to phone Scott Foss Auto Repair in San Rafael, CA (sorry I don't have the number, but recall it's in information). I spoke with him once on the phone, and he said it was the first time he'd ever received a call from a female. He does I believe servicing and replacing of diesels, perhaps in other cars as well, but certainly in the vanagon, and sometimes has some for sale. I was specifically interested in his modification of converting the thing to turbo, for, otherwise, air-conditioning would not be possible on the regular diesel engine. I seem to recall that he did mention dropping rebuilt rabbit diesels in them...hope that helps. /martha
