<P>I found it was not that simple. One track&nbsp; was divided into several segments. That meant the resistance would rise several times to the same value as the wiper went across. I decided a visual inspection was ok.</P>

<DIV></DIV>&gt;Dear List,
<DIV></DIV>&gt;
<DIV></DIV>&gt;I'm trying to tell if I need a new air flow meter for my '86 Vanagon.
<DIV></DIV>&gt;
<DIV></DIV>&gt;Can anybody enlighten me on how resistance should change
<DIV></DIV>&gt;as the vane moves? My manuals (even Probst) are vague.
<DIV></DIV>&gt;I have two AFM's in hand. Both show similar resistance changes
<DIV></DIV>&gt;with movement, but one seems to have some drop-outs.
<DIV></DIV>&gt;
<DIV></DIV>&gt;Couldn't locate anything in the archives.
<DIV></DIV>&gt;
<DIV></DIV>&gt;thanks,
<DIV></DIV>&gt;
<DIV></DIV>&gt;Steve
