Man, that's worth a look, even if you don't buy the van!  Uh, would
you mind bringing a camera and taking a bunch of photos of what he did
while you're there?

(Interested in the MAF setup, but not believing the 26 MPG...  Maybe he has one of those
electric turbocharger setups...)

I just called a guy about a 1985 vanagon that he has for sale.  He said he removed the AFM and
 wired in a GM mass airflow sensor.  He said he now gets 26-27MPG.  He indicated there is a little
 black smoke at startup, otherwise runs OK.  Has anyone heard of this mod?  What's a good price
for a
 used AFM these days?  Maybe the van will need one.
