Listerines,

Having a frustrating problem with my 84 Westy...I just did a cylinder head
seal on an engine with 80K on it. It starts up fine but as he engine gets
warm, it seems the performance drops off to the point where it will stall
out. Once it stalls, it will not start, and reminds me of a car that is
mis-timed, or flooded. Won't even start using ether. This is, or was, a van
that I termed Mr. Reliable, it always ran even after leaving it sit for
months at a time. I checked all my wiring, and fuel lines. Timing is on, new
cap, rotor, plugs and factory spark plug wires. I made the initial
adjustment to the valves according to the Bently manual.(Screw the
adjustment screw  in until it is touching, and then turn it in another two
turns). Not sure where to go from here. Nearest VW shop is hour and twenty
minutes away, so I am on my own. The exhaust has plenty of force out of the
tailpipe, so I don't think it is a blocked catalytic converter. Any idea's
would greatly be appreciated.
