A new thing has poped up on my 86GL automatic. After driving it for about 30
min it dies and will not restart for about 30 min. I hear every thing Fuel
pump run but will not start.This has happned twice so far and in the same
place , backing into my turn around.Is this the dredded "vanagon syndrome"
and should I open afm to clean it out?
I have 198,000.0 onthe original engine and trans.
Any Ideas?The dual carbs off of a porsche 914 are looking good right now.
