I have a rebuilt engine in a 81 vanagon I have had for  a while.  Everything
is tuned, good vacuum, CO, etc.

The van is a dog, though.  Do not feel any slipping in trans, but real slow
to accelerate, and low top end speeds.  ( I have driven other automatics, so
I know this one is WAYY below the norm)

The trans has new fluid, and i did clean the screen.......not much of
anything in the screen.   Kickdown is set correctly, so I know it is not a
linkage issue.

Any ideas would be appreciated.
