'86 Westy I've written about this before, but am having troubles fixing it... My van would suddenly drop RPMS to 0, for an instant, before coming back to proper RPM, causing severe bucking. After looking at the usual suspects I checked the fuel filter and it was filthy. Changed both the plastic fuel filter pre-fuel pump and the high pressure filter post-fuel pump. Van stopped bucking, but now it stumbles under load. It never did it before. It has to be fuel related, but I have no idea what it could be. Any help is appreciated. Thanks, Gregor |
