Hi Everyone,

I just wanted to thank all of you for your input and assistance on my fueling problems. It turns out that the O2 sensor was bad. When I took it out, it was all plugged up with carbon deposits. I figure that the fuel injectors were in such a sorry state that the unburned fuel caused the O2 sensor to go, and thus caused all of my mix ups. I took my Westy for a 50 mile test drive, filling her before and after the little jaunt, and recorded a fuel mileage of 26.5 mpg. This is probably a little high depending on how "full" the tank actually was (I used the same gas station and the same pump). So, hopefully this is the end of my fueling problems, atleast for now :)

Thanks again everyone!

Ryan
