I'm running a set of these in my '85 and while I don't remember what the
part number was, I had read on the list somewhere that Bosch wasn't
recommending them for use in the Vanagon.  I bought and installed mine
before I read this.  Mine seem to run okay--no better than the single point
Bosch Platinums they replaced.  This may be a coincidence, but ever since I
started using these my exhaust has developed a putrid smell.  I just had the
van tested for emissions for Metro Atlanta compliance and it passed pretty
well (HC 107, CO% .75, NO-ppm 0659, CO-CO2% 14.2  all of this at 2050 RPM--i
think that's the load test).
