Hi, I just got a 79 Westfalia Campmobile and it comes with two tables. There is a spot to put one of the tables on the dashboard, but I cannot figure out where to put the other table (in the back?) There is absolutely nowhere to connect it to. I am missing something? Does anybody have any suggestions for modifications that I would be able to make? My van also leaks oil :-( I hate to see the puddle on the ground, but I have been told that it is common to most VW's. It is coming from the oil filter bracket where it connects to the engine. I tried to take this bracket off, but cannot get at the bolts which hold it in? Any suggestions? Also could it be coming from the oil cooler? Could I fix that without pulling the engine? FYI it seems to be leaking about a 1/2L (1 pint?) every 500km (380mi). Does it need to be fixed?? And last, but not least, i have a auxillary heater. More often than not, it works, but sometimes it doesn't. I have heard that these are walking time bombs. Are they safe, or should I turn it on and run? Thanks in advance for your help, as this is my first time letter; the van is 3 weeks old to me? PS. It is an automatic and the reverse lights don't work (bulb and fuse ok) any advice. I thought I should kill four birds with one stone and save paper. ADAM '79 VW Westfalia Campmobile awebb@sfu.ca
