Dear Volks,

Well, went up to Joshua Tree and waved at two Vanagon owners.  On my return,
seems my drain bolt (which my mechanic had mentioned appeared to be
stripped) fell out and hemorrhaged oil all over the roadside.

My air-cooled buddy behind me did a temporary fix by using an air-cooled lug
nut to staunch the flow and it got me home.

Tomorrow I'll be checking into how to get this repaired, but was wondering
if the list knows how this procedure works.  Any advise is helpful.

Love and Rockets,
DaBomb
