Hi All,

In order that I can continue to take apart my 1987 2.1 GL (MV Motor) I need
a bit of help on a "mystery part"

http://www.fishforms.com/vanagon/mysterypart.htm

I am behind the throttle and trying to get that last nut free, to remove the
entire air intake / fuel line system.  Everything comes off nice and easy
except the last nut (of course).  I cannot get a socket onto it, as this
"Mystery Part" is in teh way!

It seems to be a hard plastic boot, of sorts, which seats directly in the
engine block, and points back towards the starter... although I see nothing
coming out on that side.

It continues to the alternator, and ends in a strange plug, attached to the
side of the alternator having 3-pins... and a cap, which was closed.  Makes
be believe that it is not being used.

The only thing I can guess at is taht it might have had something to do with
the aftermarlet cruise control which is long since gone... but I cannot work
until it is dealt with.

The cap has the code on it:

SME 001 915

Please... please help me!  I want to get this finished before dark, so I can
bring it inside and play with it all  night!

Thanks!

RSF
