If anyone cares, there is a picture of the floor duct in question on
page 80.12 of the Vanagon Bentley and the part is called "air
distributor". In all too typical Bentley fashion, the page is labeled
"All_Water-cooled". All of the 82 diesel Westys I have seen, way more
than 10, had the duct as best I recall. None had the DA6 though but in
SoCal who needs it. I can't remember if any of my 82 passenger diesel
models had it. Any passenger diesels out there?
