I've angered the Vanagon Gods.

My daughter and I went to Safeway a little while ago, and came out of the
store to find a small puddle of antifreeze under my Vanagon.

The thing is, I knew the left side was leaking; with the heat shield off,
you can see the signs of slight seepage.  But this puddle was caused by the
right side, and it does NOT look like seepage.  It's a leak.  :(

Looks like I can put it off no longer.  I've done heads on 1.8's, 2.0's, and
even a Chrysler 360, but never a Vanagon.  Nor do I really have the time or
money, but here goes.

I was underneath just now looking, and I'm thinking, might as well replace
the clutch.  Need to replace those flange seals on the transmission.  Need a
new muffler.

Looks like I'm in my Corolla until Summertime.  Pray for me.
