AZ bus club based out of PHX meets monthly and is always doing something from cruises to work party's to camping. look into them, fun fun group. I think they are super active, just not too sure how many members check out the vanagon sections on the forum. It's a club for everyone, every vw.

Hello, Tucsonians.

I am currently here and am in need of an expandable push rod tube and inner seal for my 2.1.

Chrico says they don't have anything.
Dealership can get one, but 5-6 days out Sad

I don't have one but I often get routine parts from a BAP/Geon store. If they don't have it they can possibly get it pretty quickly. I use the one on 22nd but looks like there is one over on the west side (Prince), possibly nearer you:

Aaargh! I called BAP (lots of import parts) and Merles (regional chain) and neither could help.

I also called the one shop I have used (owner drives a Vanagon) but they are closed Saturdays.

Part number appears to be 025 109 337 if that is of any use.

Would a roll of Super Tape help?

I found the tube is actually cracked so rescue tape it is Smile

Bumping this because I just picked up my Synchro and drove it home to Tucson.

Anyone interested in helping with a project?

Hello all Tucson members of thesamba.

My name is Mike and own a 79 Westy. I'd like to meet some of the Vanagon owners I see cruising around town in person.

Update this thread or PM me if there is gonna be a meet up somewhere.

Ahwahnee · Posted: Sun Oct 04, 2015 5:55 pm Post subject:

I'm leaving on a Utah roadtrip on Wednesday but after I return I'd be willing to attend a meet-up.

Possibly morning coffee somewhere central?

My 'other' (weekly) car & coffee meet-up is at the Starbucks at Grant & Swan -- mainly because they have quite a bit of outdoor seating and if you sit outside they don't mind you tying up tables for an extended chat.

dwdufour · Posted: Sun Oct 04, 2015 6:45 pm Post subject:

Awesome!

Let's put something together.

Any advice on doing emissions on a new import that never had a Cat?

I have the Audi 5 cylinder engine (for now).

PM sent.

Another (new) Tucson member here, but not with a Westy.

I can't say that I see a lot of Vanagons on the road around here...

Will any of you be going to Chirco for the thing they are doing the weekend after next?

dwdufour · Posted: Wed Oct 07, 2015 11:47 pm Post subject:

Well, my Vanagon with the Audi 5 cylinder failed emissions today.

Shit.

obieoberstar · Posted: Sat Oct 10, 2015 6:28 pm Post subject: Chirco Bugtoberfest

Will be attending the Chirco Bugtoberfest this weekend. Plan to do some selling on Sunday morning. Maybe even camp the night before so I don't have to get up early, drive and find a spot.

The bus is beige '79 Westfalia with a unique license plate frame.

Come by and have a cup of coffee. Would be nice to meet some samba Vanagon owners.

Mike.
