Ken,
How much of a risk is this for warm-weather (I'm in Texas.) vans?

Best,

Subject: Busted Shifter?  Tis the Season!

As the cold weather encroaches across our fair nation many Vanagons are
making a popping sound.  It is the sound of the brittle plastic parts inside
your manual shifter lever assembly self-destructing (you didn't think they
would last forever did you?).  But do not fear, here is a list of parts to
fix your problem (or if you have never rebuilt your shifter then it might be
time for some PM):

1- 171 711 227A- $2.20
1- 171 711 279- $6.90
2- 823 711 255- $2.90 each ($5.80)
1- 251 711 645- $6.90
1- 823 711 643 A- $4.00
1- 823 711 199- $.73

I sell these parts as a kit for a mere $23.63.  That is a small amount
compared to the possibility of having your van become not driveable on a
long trip, or the cost of towing.  Just wanted to let the List know that
this kit is available.  Just call or email if you want one.  Happy winter
driving!

Thanks,
Ken Wilford
