I need to overhaul my new (to me) 85 Westfalia with the standard waterboxer engine. I need the specialized tools that are required to remove/replace pistons and sleeves and any other specialized tools (removing circlips and piston pins, it looks impossible through that little hole. . Are there others besides the piston/sleeves issue?? How can I make/borrow/buy them. I have overhauled air-cooled engines many times---this is a whole new trip for me. I haven't been to the dealer yet, but this could cost me a small fortune just for the tools?? Thanks for any help you can give me. Don
