That engine lid isn't going to melt and put out a fire, it's going to burn. Get a Blaze Cut for the inside of that lid, then you'll have some fire protection. Nice looking Bus!!

Thank you for mentioning that. I recall reading the plastic lids ability to put out an engine fire from a comment someone made in another video. I'll be more careful in future about spreading false information like that. Much appreciated for commenting and pointing that out. I always welcome feedback on stuff I say that doesn't sound right. I'm in no way perfect, lol.

I carry 3 fire extinguishers and have one of those in my wish list. An once of prevention is worth a pound cure, read as $200 of blaze cut will save our 2000(?) pound Volkswagens 😂 STOC

Noice! The first VW I owned was a Red 1990 VW Carat I bought from a dealer in Portland, Oregon. I brought it to the east coast in 2000 and had to sell it after the head gasket started leaking...I couldn't afford the time or $ to fix it then :(. I am however overjoyed with what the universe replaced it with :) nice dub! Glad to see someone enjoying theirs as much as I do mine 😄 STOC

I enjoyed my Carat soo much! U-Haul put on a trailer hitch and additional trans cooler, but when they went to connect the cooler they attached it to the air conditioner condenser instead of the radiator...I learned a lot about the AC system 😅

There are indeed a lot of things that can go awry when working on a Vanangon and not having a Bentley manual to refer to.

Took it down. Needed to make some repairs to the van... the never ending story with Vanagon life.
