Hello, I have a 1985 water cooled Vanagon w/135,000 miles on the original engine. It has a compression leak or two, and is definately in need of a complete overhaul. Estimates for such an overhaul average out to approx. $3,500. Do you have any info on avg. prices for such work? How about some options - can I find a used engine somewhere, or a long block? Any info. you may have would be a big help. Thanks, Walter Houle San Diego, Ca 74127,1127@compuserve.com
