About 3 weeks ago, I bought a 1980 westy vanagon with
a rebuilt air cooled engine.  I spent about $1600
getting it safty inspected and ready for a road trip.

I took it first to Georgina Bay on Lake Heron and then
to agonquin park. My wife and I had a great time.  It
was her first westy camping trip.

The Van ran great, although I don't think it got great
gas milage.  I put over 700 miles on the trip and
burned a quart of oil in the process.  I checked the
oil every day so I know the oil was burned on the last
day of the trip.  I ran it about 75 miles an hour on
the trip home(Toronto) for about 225 Km's(about 3
hours).  Is burning a quart of oil normal at that
speed and that time?  Seems to me that air cooled
engines burn more oil than water cooled ones.

The other proplem I had was with the fridge.  I never
could get it to work.  The Pilot never would  lite and
I never could get it to work on Battery.  The circut
breaker is broken so I didn't try the external power
source.  Any suggestions?

Thanks,
Victor
