Well I am finally driving the Vanagon again.  Now it is time to tackle the
smog issues.  Here were the readings.

2582rpm max             average         my van
HC              180             0035            111
CO%             1.20            00.20           3.94
C02                                             12.3
O2                                              0.4

988rpm          max             average         my van
HC              150             0040            324
CO%             1.20            00.10           2.93
C02                                             10.7
O2                                              3.8

If just the HC or CO was out, that I could handle but I am not sure of the
best place to start on this.
Things replaced/fixed so far:
Distributor cap
Rotor
Plug cables
Plugs
Vacuum lines

O2 sensor is working

I am looking suggestions as to any adjustments/sensors that might be out
that could cause these readings.
