There are several water issues on Vanagons. Corners of the front
windshield, water in the brake lines, and water in the gas tank. Each
has it own specific solution. Lots out there on resealing the
windshield. Bleed the brakes every two years to remove water of
condensation that occurs over time, and add a bottle of Heet to the fuel
tank every once in a while. Heet is alcohol, and alcohol is hygroscopic
- ie - it absorbs water, then it will go through the fuel system without
killing the engine, and most often without it even even so much as a
cough. Of course if somebody has "done ya" that is a different matter.
