I have a confession. The photo of Joel dressed up as the Lone Ranger is photoshopped.  That is a photo of Clayton Moore, the real lone ranger of TV fame,  and Joel's head from a photo at Westcott Beach campout.
However, the story is true, he did save the day.

Hi-HO Silver....Away !!!

A friend of mine who has a guiness record for his hot wheels collection told me hot wheels is coming out with a new sunagon. I didn't want to say anything until I saw one, so I guess it is true. This is a new release from hot wheels.

Thanks for the kind words, I am having fun.  Here's to you for the fun times around your campsite.  You keep it going as well. :lol:

Ok, That is informative. I will crawl under the van and take a look. Thanks. I appreciate this.

I am still chasing down where the leak is, if I have one it is very slow. I don't see any drips in my driveway (yet) and there is no puddle on the drivers floor. That doesn't mean there isn't a lek, it just means I haven't found it yet. Thanks for the replies. I am needy.

OK, Since my post, I checked the reservoir and it was low. It took a lot of fluid. My pedal got stiffer, but if I depress the clutch very slowly it is still soft. I am blaming this on air in the system which could have gotten in when the fluid got low.  Your help on where to look for leaks is terrific. Now I know what to keep an eye on. I have a handle on the problem now. I'll go to Westcott bur bring along a bottle of fluid too, just in case. Thanks.

Vanagon concerns / 84 Westy - soft clutch
« on: August 24, 2011, 02:00:57 PM »
When I slowly depress the clutch pedal it seems soft (less resistance) .  When I quickly depress the pedal it seems alright.  Anybody heard of this? What does it mean?
I'd like to know because I want to take off this weekend to Westcott Beach.

I am posting this for a local friend who needs assistance with his campmobile -- Phil

Basically my left brake light doesn't work and also the right signal light has a fast flash in both
the front and the rear.  I've check and changed the bulbs along with the grounds.  I've lightly sanded the ground clips to ensure a good connection.  Also, when I have my right signal light on and I step on the brakes the signal bulbs in the dash go out.  When my left signal is on, the lights in the dash still flash and everything is fine.
When I step on the brakes, the right red brake light goes on, but the left one does not.  Also when I have the headlights turned on, the right tail light goes on, but the left does not.

BTW, everything was working last year up until about the end of summer.  I didn't do any type of repairs or mods.  It just seemed to happen by itself.  Its very strange.
Thats a quick run down on what works and what doesn't and any help is appreciated.

Thanks,
Jon

No, they don't have a limbobus address.  But if you want a limbobus email address, all you have to do is ask.

I was taking a nap. Someone came along and set me up for a "funny" photo with green gnome shorts and a bananna.  I wondered who it was.  Seems like my good friend Rich M. caught the culprit in this photo.
I have a whole year to think of a payback   :twisted:

Joel opted for Bus Fusion  to promote Westies at Watkins and Mark needed some alone time after a grueling few weeks.  It happens!
However, Bob and Sarah showed up and so did John LeFever as well as the rest of the gang, so it all worked out in the end.
