Subject:      Dead spot in excelerator
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii


   I have an '85 vanagon syncro that I just put a used engine in and I
have a very annoying dead spot in the excelerator. The rpm also surges
at a high idle. This problem is not there when engine is cold, but as
soon as it warms up it is evident.
   I've had this on a couple other vans, not as bad, and automatic
trans. so it wasn't as big a deal but this feels like it is going to rip
the engine out of the mounts!
     Anyone out there know what causes this, or better what cures this
condition?
