I'm looking for a Synchro camper, and am wondering if all of them
are waterboxers, or are some aircooled? And what year did VW solve
the headgasket problem?
   BTW,  I had two Subarus with similar problems, they
had wet sleeves which had shims under them. Too thick a shim, the head
gasket leaked water out onto the ground. Too thin a shim, the gasket
would leak water into the cylinder and/or compression into the coolant.
Major bummer! I had to buy an expensive dial-indicator gauge just to
set those shims right.
