I just called Utah Imports leaving a phone message that you will be in this
area tomorrow and need immediate/emergency help
with the starter. Not able to actually discuss this with anyone there but am
pretty sure that if they have the manpower to help
they will. It is an extremely busy shop as they have such a good, long
standing reliable reputation.
By the way, I've never met the "Alex Perry" at UI .... ONly know Allan, the
shop manager and Jeff Keller owner, and his
brother Jim. On I-80 coming into SLC take the I-15 north/Ogden turns onto
I-15. Take the Sixth S/City Center exit just up
ahead. You'll be heading E on 6th. Go to State street, turn right (S) to mid
block 800 S. Look for Yellow Building, red letters
Marisa's Fashions. Use the driveway just before that building to the middle
of the block .... Utah IMports is not on the street
front, it's hidden back in there.
Another option, further north by 10/15 minutes is Metric Motors in
Centerville, Ut. They are an excellent shop and know
vanagons inside and out. Chris is the owner:
480 North 1000 West Centerville, UT 84014-1739 - (801) 295-699
That shop is north on I-15 10 min. from SLC at the Centerville exit ....
take off ramp, turn left back over I-15 then right
at 2nd stop sign, then right at first street ... it's at the end of that
road 150 yards away.
I happen to be working tomorrow but if I can help in some way call me.

PS ... do NOT try to compression start your van in reverse or in FIRST gear,
use forward gears and 2nd gear at lowest.

We are traveling East on I80 from Ca to Denver. It's the first day on our
vacation and the
starter went out on our 87 Synco, we are in despite need of an repair shop
who can
replace the starter . We will be near Salt lake on Thursday then Wyoming
all along 80 to
Denver on Friday. Anyone who can help with the name and number of a resource
that can
help would be appreciated immensely and possibly save our trip.
