Just Getting Into Rolla
Front with Top Popped
Back Interior
Engine (Type II)
So, after thoroughly reading John Muir's book "How to Keep Your Volkswagen Alive: A Guide for the Compleat Idiot". I began going through the step by step procedure for diagnosing why the bus won't start. After checking the battery, I began on the fuel system, where I discovered no flow of fuel. So, after trying to blow into the gas tank (with the hope of hearing bubbles) with no luck, I took the fuel line off but still had no flow out of the tank. So, I shoved a wire into the tank and twirled it around until gas started to pour out. Success!, but still no starting. Now I am down to diagnosing the ignition system. I think we have a bad starter. Also above are some pics of the bus.

How does it make you feel that, after reading the "How the Keep Your VW Alive: A Guide For The Complete Idiot" you still couldn't get her to come alive?
I blame the book not the reader. If it were "How To Make Your Dead VW Come Alive: A Guide For The Total Idiot" you might of had a fighting chance.
Now that she's alive, hopefully we can keep her that way with the book.
