Hi John,
>I am planning to buy a Westfalia Florida 1991 2.5 litre TD.
I have a Florida 1989, standard 2.4l Diesel.
>Does the gas-heater burner need changing at 10 years (even if the tank and system have been checked)?
The diesel air heater needs a replacement of the heating unit after 10 years.
The hot water heater doesn't need anything to be replaced (until it does´t work :-) )>There is no engine service history from 1993 to 1998.
Check the "Zahnriemen". It needs to be replaced every 120,000 km, some people advise to change it every 90,000.
VW charges up to 1200 DM for the replacement.>The gear lever feels pretty vague, is this normal?
It is the same with mine and you need some force to change gears.
>What are the dimensions of the roof bed and the lower bed?
Roof bed: 1.95 x 1.55 m
Lower bed: 1.95 x 1.35/1.15 (the second back seat is mounted closer to the sidewall of the LT and is slightly smaller)>Thankyou for all the help - hopefully , I'll be a fellow LT-Freund soon!
You will enjoy it!!!
Regards, Uli
