Subject:Rough idle at startup
From:Colin Carmichael
Date:Sun, 5 Nov 2000 09:26:11 -0800

I have a 91 GL that's in great shape w/low miles
(57K).  The engine is in excellent shape and runs
strong - except at start-up. She'll die immediately
unless you hold it at 3K RPMs for about 5 minutes.
Then she'll idle fine. When the engine dies, there's a
squeaking noise from under the front/center of the
van.

What's the likely remedy for this problem - or do all
vanagons do this?  I've only had my van for a few
months.

Thanks in advance
Colin
