Cab, bike, shank's mare- don't drive it. If you have another vehicle to use
and you can do this yourself, you could order a kit from one of the vendors,
or you can assemble the stuff yourself at the FLAPS.
Don't see why you would need a 'VW specialist' to do the work, any competent
mechanic should be able to do it, however you need to get the right fuel
hose and there is a 'better' kind of clamp...
It's all in the archives: http://gerry.vanagon.com/archives/vanagon.html

Good luck,
Robert

Would you...

A) Drive it directly (30 mins) to to the VW specialist

B)  Replace the worst hoses by the nearest 'joe mechanic', then drive
directly to the specialist

C) dont think of driving it anywhere..get it towed!

Let me know what you think....thanks JP
