Subject:      Where's Waldo?  (Something is missing?)
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="US-ASCII"

Ok, two questions on a 82 Vanagon with a 2.0L Type 4 engine I'm piecing back together (I was given the van.)

1. What am I missing in these two pictures:

http://www.iamjeremy.com/van1.JPG The area is circled. Something defiantly connects to this. I think it connects to the hose circled in green on the second picture as this hose goes no where.

http://www.iamjeremy.com/van2.JPG The red circle - something looks like it's just missing.

2. I have put back on a piston and 2 jugs and the head etc. With the coil disconnected and the dist cap off, I tried to crank the engine to get oil in the case (get the oil light to go off.) But when I do, The starter goes CLONK but doesn't turn the engine over. The battery is good, even tried a different battery and tried it with my 50A quick charger connected and on. Voltage on the battery is 12v and drops to 9.7v when the starter goes CLONK. Any ideas here?

Thank You! Jeremy
