<html><div style='background-color:'><DIV></DIV> <DIV></DIV>I am new to this list, but have been driving volkswagon busses for 15 years. I have a 1980 vanagon that has been very reliable and runs great at 0-65 on flat ground. Any incline is a problem though. I can run 70 on flat interstate, but the slightest incline will slow it to 50-60 mph. Occasionally it seems to get a boost of full power for a second or two. Every once in a blue moon it also has a 1 or 2 second burst of "coughing". I am thinking of buying a rebuilt air flow meter from the Bus Depot, but am open for suggestions before I spend that money. If you have any, I will try them.
