  Is there a list somewhere of reputable mechanics that work on Vanagons in every state?? If not, I'd like to create one... Please add in comments below who you use and in what state they are located. Like that we aren't stranded somewhere and only get chop shops to work on our precious vans in case of travel emergencies. I'll comprise a printable list for everyone so they can be carried at all times. Thanks in Advance!

  Mike P. asked:

  I need some help and who would know better than members of this awesome group! Here is the problem; I need to adjust the valves in my 68 VW. Sound easy, right? It was when I was driving it to work 35 years ago and before our 16 year old son (now 38 years old) & I had the engine rebuilt with a high performance engine (We are the original owners of the car - my wife drove it to HS 45 years ago). Once I did that, I stopping doing the maintenance/oil change myself and always took it to a shop in So-Cal and they maintained it for me. Well, I am now retired and moved to Utah 5 years ago and the valves and oil change needs to be done. When I got the oil, getting ready to adjust the valves, the rotor cap was completely different!! Yikes!! OK, here is the question; How do I know I have my rotor set on the #1 cylinder to I can begin to set the values at .004 intake & .006 for exhaust??? I can't even find a marking on the shaft to know I am aligned with the #1 cylinder and my old "How To" book is confused also. Any help or suggestions are appreciated!!

  Use the pulley on the crankshaft Set it at top dead center and follow the # 1 cylinder sparkplug wire to the dist cap. Rotor will either be pointing at #1 or 3 cylinder depending on which one its pointing at start there. Or Waynes Vee Double Repair 801 -954-0837
