Hoping i posted this properly. Thanks for the replies from BenT and  Jason. Much of the work done on the LT is by me and by a friend who  comes to my house to work on the truck but Jason Ewing (Uberhare) will  be working on a changeover to a 1.9 TDI in the coming months. This will  have a quattro box on it as it was the only way i could see to get rear  wheel drive on the truck. I would loved to have to drive the front  wheels
but that is too difficult ( I think). The tranny is set  up to have batteries drive the front hubs and transfer power to the  back when in neutral. PUHybrid is the ultimate goal.
 
I  used to have a T3 as a work van years ago and loved it but with the LT  for work it s time to get a camper. I know this one occasionally suffers  from the dreaded vanagon electrical cut out when warm and I would like  to change the capacitor as before coming back from Calgary. Other than  that, I am told there is nothing wrong with the wee beastie. None the  less, I will check out the recommended dudes in calgary for a tune up.  Thanks again all.
