Subject:Re: Need "obsolete" and rare bleeder for 83.5
Date:Tue, 8 Aug 2000 09:34:16 EDT

Jeff, why not just make one out of copper tubing and a heater system bleeder.
 Wouldn't take a experienced plumber more than a few minutes to put together
and would be way more sturdy than a used unit out of plastic.  For those who
think it would be terrible to put a piece of copper in the Vanagon cooling
system, I would like to point out that many Vanagons had copper core
radiators.  I wouldn't think a little piece of copper would hurt anything if
you could have a whole radiator made of the stuff in the system.

Thanks,
Ken Wilford
