Subject:      Vanagon Pedal Assemblies Failing!!!
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii

  Listees,

  ANyone else have the Clutch Push Rod area fail on their Vanagon??

  We did a van in our shop last week that the hole had Completly egged
out and broke thru!!  I have recently bought an 88 Wolfsburg Weekender
and it has the same problem!!  The hole has enlongated and the clutch
will barely engage correctly after adjusting the pushrod due to lack of
throw.

  This wear is possibly caused by not keeping your Clutch Pedal Pushrod
adjusted to the correct free play, but then again I'm not sure.

  I wanted to post to inform the List of this happening, I don't recall
any discussion on this topic in the past either.

  I hope this info helps someone too.  I do NOT look forward to doing
this job, it was 4 hours start to finish the last time:(  I hope it will
go smoother the second time....

  Kyle
