Hi John, really nice to "see" you here. How's Yacolt treating you these dayz? In my own case, the entire drivetrain back there was the culprit. Engine-to-transaxle bolts were loose; transaxle to frame were both loose and 2 incorrect bolts, and one missing bolt. After that was all repaired (and a new kind of prop shaft installed) the van drives completely differently (I know you're not talking Syncro, but just sayin'). bob |
