But, your reply to the tiico list earlier today seems to indicate otherwise,
Don.
Try not to talk out of both sides of your mouth. Some of us are on all of
the related lists.

"Botch-job"?...Sounds like a regular Vanagon to me...We all have these
issues all the time...Nobody (other than maybe a movie star) would
realistically expect to have a vanagon work perfectly, just cause you paid a
lot for it, right?
Kidding, sort of.
The only vehicles I've ever owned that having a problem was a
surprise?....Nissan or Toyota..and my Ford pickup for about it's first
couple of months..
.I am more surprised when I do a long trip without any problems at all...
But at least with my Vanagon, all problems are minor. I can fix most
everything right along the highway or in some parking area in a few hours,
usually with what I have along, or with help from the People on Vanagon List
and UPS...I don't need a Cray supercomputer and a 12yr old to interpret the
data to read my 'fault codes" and figure a way to 'defeat' some safety
system or any of that...
