Steve, First check with a VW authorized dealer to see if your vanagon ever had the fuel lines, injectors, and fuel rails replaced under a recall called "RV". The 1990 model year qualified for this recall, and possibly earlier ones qualified as well. Apparently 1991 model year did not qualify for the free replacement of the above. Not sure if this recall, "RV", is still in effect, but it should be if yours hasn't been done. VW keeps records for every vin number. Harald '90 westy

It's super clean and no rust (rare in the Detroit Metro Area). Now for my next set of questions. What should I do next? In respects to taking care of the Van. This is my first Camper Van, so I'm kind of green at this. But I do own a 98 GTI VR6 that work on quite regularly. Mostly upgrading go fast parts. Any help would be nice. And I do have maintance records since 92. Steve
