I installed a reply about 1 1/2 years ago. Had the starter drag on me only once after a 3 hour trip, one summer, going between 80-90 mph, full of furniture. I was unable to start it for about 15 minutes. Aside from that one occurrence, it works great. ---------- From: niel blackwell[SMTP:branard@BELLSOUTH.NET] Sent: Monday, March 30, 1998 10:40 PM To: Vanagon@VANAGON.COM Subject: Dragging Starter Wally, the 84 Westy (150K) has a draggy starter, especially when hot. A lot like my daughter's Jetta when we installed the $10 Bosch relay "hot soak" kit. Has anyone installed one of these on a Vanagon? Or am I destined for a new starter?
