My Syncro DoKa is running CIS - it has since 1998 with the stock fuel pump -
no problems at all.

The comments for and against using the vanagon fuel pump with the CIS system
are interesting. Mine now seems to be working pretty well, though I do have
to crank for a bit to get it to start when warm (may have control pressure
regulator problem.) I do have the pump/accumulator/filter setup from which I
pulled the 1986 Golf GX motor. If I'm feeling adventurous one day I may
stick it in just to see if it makes a big difference in running.

One comment raises a question for those that have been using the vanagon
pump. How long have you been running your conversion and have you had any
pump related problems?
