First thought for me is 'the battery clamp is loose'.  It gives enough
voltage and amp to the pump and the computer, but not enough amp to the
starter system.

Subject: 84 westy

Hi folks.
I'm fairly new to the westy world. Been reading here and have learned a lot
from you people. Thank you. I have only had my westy for a year. And still
have not been able to use it much as I don't know all the quirks that go
with it. Today I took the van for a ride and at the stoplight. It just died.
Won't even turn over I can hear the fuel pump when I turn the key. Any
ideas?  It's an 84 westy with a 1.9 water boxer  any help would be
appreciated.
