Maybe it's already failed.  Symptoms: Motor will run for short periods of
time and then quit.  Waiting several minutes before re starting seems to be
the only way to get it to start again.  Prolly not Vanagon syndrome since I
have a Haltech brain runing the engine instead of Digifant, but it may be
acting up.  The reason I think it's fuel is after the second episode of it
acting up yesterday, I loosened the 7mm screw in the T- line and there was
little to no pressure when the screw was removed.  The fuel pump is only a
month old(albeit a rebuilt one from a non-bosch company).  Van has 197 k on
the original FPR and even when it does run, the idle hunts pretty badly.

Am I close here, or is there something else I'm missing?  Thanks to all
that respond!!
