1987 Volkswagen vanagon 2.1 L

Trans: Standard Mileage: 103,696 miles VIN: WV2ZB0259HH025276

Symptoms: Misfire Occurs: Under load

____________________________________________________________

Customer complains that car bucks under load.Didn't occur for me so had to have customer take me to the area it occured,long upgrade. Car had been to dealer who scanned(No probs)cleaned grounds and added one to air flow meter.Also tuned with new plug wires.Same thing.Customer disillusioned with dealer now.I figure if dealer having a hard time,I probably will too.So I thought I'd use this great tool to see if someone has seen this problem before with these vans and save myself some grief before I get into it.Forgot to mention that heads had been rebuilt by another shop appox. a year ago.
