Volks,

My '85 van had the dreaded van syndrome.  I put in the capacitor fix and it
was just as bad at first and got gradually better [honest I haven't been
doing any drugs, except for fioroset].  The oil pressure light doesn't
usually light except very briefly when first revving the engine after
starting it.  Turn the key off and the wipers still work, the heater and ac
fans still work but the headlights don't [per design, I believe]

The only thing that I can think of that may be related to all these things
is bad grounds.

Every ground on the engine was taken apart and remade during my recent
install of a rebuild.  I've cleaned the star ground under the dash, although
about a year ago.

Any ideas?

Mike
