Subject:1990 vanagon heads
From:Reggie Rainard
Date:Thu, 24 Apr 2003 18:40:14 -0700

hi all,
  i have a 1990 vanagon with a near new engine (55,000
miles) and i put new heads on it (old heads from
engine were used previously). i managed to put
everything back togather, oil water (in place of
antifreeze to check that it was water tight) and the
car turned over with no problem. as soon as it turned
over it would run really rich and then choke and
barely stay runnin, is this a normal occurance when
you first start up your car after haveing the heads
replaced?

                              thanks,
                              Reggie Rainard
