I guess I have been lazy about keeping notes on who drives what . My bad.
and ...if it's a Eurovan ....
good luck !
and ..speaking of ...
anybody got a good used ECU for sale for my 93 EV ...?
got the thing a year ago now ...supposed to need an ecu ...
haven't found one, too many vanagon projects ..
and no kidding, I have a plan to run it on vanagon digifant fuel injection.
EV's are their own special nightmare. .
I'm also wondering if................. with a decent digifant EFI system
running it, if a Eurovan 2.5 Inline Five would make a good vanagon engine.
I think the engines are fairly bomber ..
but generally ...from everything I can read on EV's ..about the fuel
injection/electronics etc....
they're 'difficult' let's say.
anybody wanna buy a nice project EV .... ? nice turquoise Multi-van, pop
top, nice interior , 5 speed manual trans. Seats can even be made to fit a
vanagon nicely.
look for air intake leaks is my first suggestion.
