Subject:Re: [vanagon] Is anyone going to be interested?

Hi Loren:

I would be interested.  There are many things that are not covered well in Bentley.  For example, I need to replace the brake-light switch.  Looks easy enough, but nothing in Bentley tells you how to do it or what not to do in the process.  Another job I need to do is to replace the throttle body on my 1.9L.  Have a new one ready to go switches aligned, etc.  However, I work alone, and I know how difficult it is to get throttle back in and connect the throttle shaft going to the automatic transmission.  Last time I did this, I had the van apart for an engine transplant.

Just some ideas.

John

  Subject: [vanagon] Is anyone going to be interested?

  Okay, I'm looking for some opinions here.  Over the last four years I've
  been an active subscriber to most of the Vanagon and Westfalia related
  Internet groups.  I've been trying to better understand my own Westfalia
  camper and the Vanagon that it is based on.  In doing this I've accumulated
  a bunch (spelled really big bunch) of URL's and documents covering just
  about everything and a lot of related topics.  If there is enough interest
  I'm going to go through the list, organize them, clean out the dupes and
  dead links, and put them all on a CD in a format that can be imported into
  IE, Mozilla, Firefox, etc.  And do the same with all the various text files
  I've downloaded.  This is going to take a little time to do and I'm sure
  that the way I organize things will be different than what you might do, but
  I'll make it as clean and useful as possible.  I'd provide these, on CD, to
  anyone that wanted one, at $10 each.
  This is not going to happen for at least a month (leaving at the end of the
  week for BBTB and points beyond) but it will happen, deadline the middle of
  March.
  BUT I'm not going to do this unless there is some interest out there.  So
  let me know if this sounds like something that might be of value to you.

  Happy New Year
