DO NOT DRIVE WITHOUT THE FAN! Stop immediately and do not run the engine. I always carry a spare in my spare parts supply when traveling in one of my VWs. --- On Sun, 8/23/09, atx <atx_bus@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: From: atx <atx_bus@xxxxxxxxx> Subject: [tcb] Generator pulley?

So it's an obvious and easy repair. Is this a common failure, so I should have an extra on hand? Also, if I had been far from home, is this a stop in your tracks failure? Or could you drive a few miles with out the fan? Jeff sent via iPhone
