Subject:      83.5 won't start - Help!
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"

Volks,


My 83.5 1.9l liquid cooled Westy won't start.  Tank is half full, gasline
antifreeze used at last fill up, air and fuel filters were replaced in
august, afm removed and tested yesterday - max resistance was 2400ohms at
about 1/3 of travel.  The van ran fine earlier today except for some
cutting-out/ hesitation.  The hesitation has been happening alot for the
last few days and only once in a while before that.  Then just now I went
out to get some parts and she won't start.  Electronic ignition an fuel
injection are both new to me but I do have a good grasp of the concepts.
Please point me in the right direction if you can.


TIA
