Subject:      throttle valve switch
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1"

Im new to the list. I just recently aquired my first vanagon, 1984, 1.9 water cooled. Replaced exhaust, found gaskets, got it quiet, then new plugs, new rotor and cap and wires, and it runs halfway decent. O2 sensor made a huge difference. Now, I note that the throttle valve switch is missing. I believe that this is the model that only had one switch as I can only find one lead hanging. Can anyone tell me how much difference the switch makes in performance? The van runs good, although backfires occasionally after I have my foot in it working my way up the hills around here.
