Subject:Re: 84 westy - how to stop clock battery drain?

Hi Karen

I don't worry about clock drain on my 84 Westy.  It stops under 60F (prolly
still pull juice though).  Garbage and gunk after many years of use gathers
in the movement and someday (or never), I will pull it to clean it out.
This is typical of 80-85 models with analog clocks.  So I wear a watch ;-)

You actually have a clock that works on your Vanagon? ;-)
