I checked my old coil and was only .6 ohms should have been at least 2.6 or
better.
Ah ha the van will start warm now continuing saga !
No way ,  even with the bad coil the thing ran but with the new coil I
still have the 70 % of the time no restart warm problem.
I have cleaned all elec, grounds,  connections, checked fuel pressure for
leaking injectors etc , tuneup .
Sometimes it will start right up after turning motor off sometimes not.
sometimes I can come out after one hour and it will start up but most of
the time it will not.  It will run smooth all day just cant figure this
Intermittent problem out. Thanks for all those who replied in the past few
weeks , since I put the 84 vanagon back on the road .  ? Any body ?
