Technical Bulletin
Group:    24
Number:   92-01
Date:     February 29, 1992
Subject:  Vanagon Intermittent Misfire
Model(s): All Vanagon Digifant Fuel Injection Engines

CONDITION
After driving for 1/2 to 2 hours at a constant speed, vehicle
experiences lack of power, cuts-out or stalls, often accompanied
by
bucking or jerking of the vehicle.
In ALL cases, the vehicle will restart immediately.   This symptom
may
not reoccur for several weeks/months.  Inspection by the dealer
results
in nothing conclusive.

Some airflow meters may experience a vibration resonance of the
metering potentiometer wiper during extended constant driving.
This
resonance causes the airflow meter to supply an intermittent
signal
to the Digifant ECU.   The ECU will then default to a "no-load"
condition
and reduce the injection time.

SERVICE
Harness, Part No. 025 906 302A, is available to resolve this
condition.
