Hi folks: I warm up my Vanagon for at least 5 minutes before driving it each morning (like every other VW I've owned), but when the weather is a little chilly I'll make it about a block and the vehicle won't go another inch- doesn't stall- just won't go (esp. on hills). I have to sit and warm it up another couple of minutes and then it'll go. Runs fine when fully warmed up. I know it's probably something common or obvious and is probably discussed in the archives, but this is a new hobby for me and I don't know where to look. Could someone point me in the right direction. Thanx in advance. Hugh 1986 Synchro |
