|
|
I use to have a 77 camper 18 years ago with a BA6 heater in it and it worked great! The old vw mechanic that use to work on it is long since retired.
I bought a whole ba6 unit and I was hoping to find someone here in the northeast that still knew about them or at least give me a clue how to properly install one.
Thanks Peter T |

| I have the name of a guy who has restored these things forever. he is in new jersey, not far from patterson. if you are interested, PM me, I will give you his name, as i don't know if he would want it posted publically, but I must say he does amazing work. |

| I work on them pretty well. I am outside of DC. Ask your questions here. Most of the trouble shooting can be done right here. Ray |
