Hi,

After a strange deal with a good friend of mine involving a home converted
convertible bug, a Ebenspr�cher and a 9 1/2 hp Evinrude this blue 1982 Bus
is standing on my driveway. I'm looking forward to enjoy heating based on
hot water circulation next winter. To help this system a Ebensr�cher BN6 is
installed, probably installed in the air cooled years:-) The bus is
converted to a 2.1 Litre water boxer with a centre mounted dual port
progressive Pierburg carb. The engine is  factory rebuilt and has about
20000kms on its neck.  

My question is:
 What problems are likely to pop up in the future and how can I prevent
them from happening? Normal maintenance uncounted.Is it a good idea to
retourge the heads? Don't think that has been done since the factory
rebuild. Anything else?

TIA
