In general, the air cooled engines have less power, lower fuel economy,
and shorter life.

Subject: Air vs Water

Volks, i would be interested in hearing from owners of air and water
cooled
Vanagons.  In your eyes what are the advantages and disadvanges of the
water
cooled design and the air cooled design?  Presently have a water cooled
Vanagon and may be looking at buying an air cooled in the future.  Your
thoughts please.
Many thanks,   Claudio Cella
