A few months ago, after a few days of rain, the van started up but then started running rougher and rougher until it just stalled out. I poked for awhile but ended up calling a tow truck. The van started up fine when it got to the mechanics. It was fine ever since. This morning it started doing the same thing so I pulled over and let it rest a few minutes. It started up and ran fine again until about half way to work then it started bucking and hesitating. I made it tow work but what are some things to look for. The bucking does not go away if I just turn the engine off and restart. 1983.5 Westy. Thanks, Bryan |
