Sooo there goes the compression :( looks like it's time for a rebuild! Problem is I just moved into an apartment and have no space (garage) to do the rebuild myself.

Anyone know a guy/shop that will do a rebuild of an AC 83' Vanagon engine in Los Angeles, Ca.

Thanks in advance for your help

Just had my AC done by Adrian of head flow masters
down in vista! Very happy.

Hey guys! Did you ever get that rebuild done? If so, who did ha go with? And how did it turn out? I'm in the market for an 81 AC Vanagon. Thanks!!!!

Two options... Bella's Auto in Burbank, or Gary Betz in Ventura.... Gary does a lot of air cooled rebuilds for the Porsche crowd..

I'm in the same boat, almost no compression. Did you get a rebuild done and if so how did it go?
