  I hate to admit it but, for the fuel injection problems I had Herr Schmidt's 
do the work. I was mainly impressed by the equipment that they had for working 
on the VW fuel injections. They were slow and a bit pricey but, at least now 
(with the help of the spark plugs they told me about) it runs good. 
   
  The air conditioning problems were handled by a Vietnamese guy that I know. 
Mechanically, that's about all I have had to do to it.
   
  On air cooled stuff, if I don't want to do it myself, I have been taking it 
to Jeff at JBS. Same story. He's not cheap but, if he does it, it is done well.
   
  So far I have bought parts from Donny, in Pasadena but, have not had him do 
any labor. I don't think I would hesitate to have him do anything but, it is 
difficult running a car over there and picking it up later.
   
  Best regards,

  Who is the mechanic you take your Vanagon to? Someone P-mailed me about a 
vanagon problem and I just don't have time to look at it. I was going to 
recommend Donnie Smith or the guy you use.
