Frankly I'm a bit tired of all this "list self police action" IMHO, when
you've hung around this thing for 4+ years like some of us sharing knowledge
all the way, ALL of these discussions get REAL old, eventually you quit
answering them every time, and yeah there is a great archive system but
NOBODY ever uses it, so frankly less we leap into important foglamp issues
again, my opinion is if it is really helping someone about their van (and
we've turned up a few new things in this discussion this time) it is worth
the bandwidth.  Far more so than a lot of things getting discussed.  Yeah
this very reply is hypocritical (me list self police man), but like I said
after you've been here a couple of years, then bitch, I don't every time
someone unearths another already dead discovery.  Not a personal attack on
anyone, but shit, quit whining folks, that Delete key is a real heavy click
sort of effort and all.

have creamy crud under my oil cap, and are those Audi rims going to fit, and
can I get heat in an air cooled Vanagon, and....
