Hi all,

After MUCH looking at, reading, then actually tracing of wires, I believe I
understand the Bentley wiring diagrams! Hooray! I should have all the
wiring done in a day or two. While I am at it, every bit of corrosion I can
find is being removed and all connections treated with D-5 (also known as
TWEAK in the east, where there is snow <G>) so as not to become corroded
again soon.

I found a wrecker near here that has 3 vanagons (2 Westies, 1 passenger) so
I have a source of odd parts (for instance, the bits and pieces that help
attache the steering column/wheel to the steering yoke, or swivel seat
platforms that I might buy if I can get a battery-powered angle grinder out
there or whatever, and many other things).

I still have to re-attache the radiator, now that I have fixed the fan
shroud. I have the rad assembly, 2 metal pieces that are kind of "L"
shaped, with a round depression at one end, and a channel along the axis,
and a number of bolts. These were returned to me as is when the body tech
removed the rad. I will admit to being deficient in knowledge ove this, but
I have no idea how the rad bolts on to the body!

Yup, I am not ashamed to admit, I don't know...but then, I always read the
instrucitons manuals, ask for directions and tell my wife that she is
always right.

I'd be grateful if anyone could assist.

Thanks,

Derek
