Subject:FAQs-I like it!

Time to refocus...

I like Tim's idea of FAQs.  When we're all done, perhaps they can have a
home on vanagon.com.  Then when a newbie pops up with a question or one of
us runs into a problem we previously ignored chatter about, we can point
there.  Is the vanagon.com site still updated regularly?  The "What's New"
section is a bit dated.

Possible FAQs (inspired by the ones Tim named):

* oil (dynamic oil pressure system, gauges, types, filters)
* tires/wheels (including Audi 5000 TURBO [this is for you, Chris ;-)] )
* headlights/foglights
* coolant (flushing tips, leaky heads, overflow/expansion tanks)
* fuel system (AFM, O2 sensor, temp I/II sensors, ground straps,
stuttering, mention Digifant/Digijet tool) [Darrell, this one has your
name written on it]
* paint/rust/trim
* syncro
* Westfalia
* (what'd I miss?)

Since I spent some time with it (although I'm not an expert), I'll
volunteer to put together a FAQ on the oil pressure system, analog oil
pressure gauges, and about oil-related topics relevant to Vanagons.

Any takers?
