Thanks to all who responded on this!

Knowing my question was fairly obscure, regarding a
fairly obscure engine (diesel Westy owners are a cult
within a cult), I hesitated to ask it. But none of my
six related workshop manuals even mention it, so I hit
the "SEND" button, went to lunch, and upon my return I
found three replies waiting for me, with more
following shortly. All offered good, experienced
advice, and I hope to post a brief synopsis soon,
after completing the job.

Thanks again.

Viva la Vanagon List!
