Floor pan replacement question by

like some pointers from some of you who have done this. I know you must take
a multitude of measurements before cutting out the old pans so that you get
the bolt holes in the right spot to fit the body. Are any of...

Floor pan replacement, part 2 by
Ervin Charles
Okay guys,
I appreciate the input on my previous question about floor pans. I think I
will relocate the frame to the car, slide in the replacement pans and
jacking points and then weld them in after bolting to the body. (Takes care
of alignment!)
Next Question(s).... I have only replaced sections...

Floor Pan Replacement, Part 3 by
Ervin Charles
Okay,
The frame is under the chassis and the pans are in place. Do I drill
holes and spot weld the pans to the tunnel or just weld at the edge of the
pans? Does it matter? And do I paint the joint before or after I put
body/seam sealer on the joint?
Thanks, you guys have been a ton of help!

Floor Pans by
Noice87
I just ordered Floor Pans which I will probably put on my 68 VW nug I

done that before but was doing it to his VW Thing. He said 45 dolars a
hour and best if the body is off. Besides taking the body off is there
anything i can...

Flushing Oil by
John[_28_]
Whats the consensus of opinion on flushing oil?. The idea seems reasonable.
I,m sure my 70 Squareback still running
original engine has collected some gunge internally but on the basis "if it
aint broke dont fix it" I,m inclined to leave it.
Cheers

Flushing the VW transmission by
G.I.O.
If I was to have my 1990 VW van's transmission "flushed" what is the
standard procedure
used by most shops?
That is, do they remove the pan and strainer and clean out the gunk
first, then replace it and start the pump or ??
Also, just what is the flushing fluid?
Thanks!

Fluttering sound in vent increases puzzlement by
Mike Rocket J. Squirrel Elliott
Okay, this is getting weirder. Once we get above 45mph in the Wonderbus,
a rattling, fluttering sound comes out of the driver's side fresh air
vent on the dashboard. It sounds like a playing card rattling around.
If I close the vent, the sound stops. If I pull out the round grille the
sound stops,...
