Mr. Walker,

I own and operate a company in Costa Rica called Siesta Campers
(http://www.edenia.com/campers).  We have 3 aircooled gasoline 1981 Vanagon
model Westfalias that all are running too lean (and therefor too hot),  and
none of our repair manuals tell us how to properly adjust the mixture.  The
only VW dealer in Costa Rica is also unable to assist us.  We are desperate
for the technical information on setting the mixture in these campers
correctly.  Can you point us in the right direction?

Thank you for your assistance.
Siesta Campers
