Subject:84 Vanagon
From:Bill Hays

I have inherited an 84 waterboxer. The tranny runs fine in gears R and 1-3
but needs a bungee cord to hold it in 4th as it keeps popping out into
neutral. The engine seems to have a head gasket leak as I am blowing oil
(and probably exhaust) into the water, as evidenced by oil residue in the
expansion tank.

Fortunately, perhaps, the van came with a Bentley manual. At this point, is
the manual worth more than the van?

Any suggestions
