Howdy folks !


Wrote ya a week ago 'bout my Vanagon that didnīt start but filled the neighbourhood with gas fumes :P
I was a bit concerned with the coil but it turned out to be the ignition wires !
I checked and found spark to the right but not the left side of the engine (!) bought a set of new original wires instead of the aftermarket high quality NON HEATSHIELD wires that had probably burned up inside and now itīs running like a champ again :-)
Well, thatīs apart from the "as soon as it starts to be hot hiccups" but Iīm gonna clean the AFM and check the idle speed gizmo and then I hope that those minor faults will be cured ;-)
 Many thanks for all them good suggestions !
Now itīs  beer and bed time here in Sweden 


Cheers
