Hugo, Most likely an intermittent ignition switch. Very common fault on Vanagons. Cheap from the vendors and easy to replace. Get yours today! While you are waiting for it to arrive, remove the steering column cover and push up on the connector to the ignition lock while you try to start. This worked for me but is difficult without two right hands (or assistance). -- Stuart MacMillan Manager, Case Program 800-909-8244 ext. 8208 Getting your share of the Net yet? http://cobaltgroup.com http://UsedEquipNet.com |
