So sorry, no offence meant! In Florida these boots turn to rocks. They don't 
crack, but they turn so hard that it's impossible to get them back in place 
correctly. Also I have worked on Louis' car before many times and I'm very 
familiar with it, hence say that I knew his boot was hard and he shouldn't 
remove it.

I'm truely sorry if that sounded like I was flaming you or anything like 
that, it was absolutely meant to just be a tip for Louis!

Oh and BTW, I too have a CIS aircooled bus, but the CIS is stock for the 
2.4l Porsche 911 engine which my father and I installed in our '84 Westfalia 
;-).
