1983.5-1985 T3 Vanagon

Just add water! In 1983 VW introduced liquid cooling to it's bus/van engine for the first time. This change resulted in stable and reliable travel without the frequent maintenance of the earlier air-cooled motors. Van Cafe has all the top quality parts to keep your 1.9L Vanagon moving on down the highway.
