Cool

I drove a Type II (watercooled) VW bus with a Type I (air cooled) motor from NH to Atlanta GA & back - fuel injected that had to be push started. We never turned it off for gas, and we camped on sloped sites.

On the way down, the owner told me it was using some oil. I looked at the back gate when we stopped for gas, & it was covered in oil. I bought a couple of cans of 20W diesel tractor oil & filled her up. Nary a drop came out the rest of the trip.

That was probably a 2500 mile trip. A few months later it incinerated at a toll plaza in MA.
