        When the Van arrived back in ABQ, that was 1 of the things that I looked @ 1st as I had just

replaced those connectors a few months back due to their dilapidated condition & closeness to the

the intake plumbing ~ Only had about 15mins to give a quick look before it was off to its resting

place for a week before I can flat tow it back to My place for Hopeful Repair ~
