Subject:Re: How Long Does it Take Your Van to Warm up? Cont.

Sorry about that...I keep forgetting that I have a "bastardized" wiring
system from
a 1984 harness, so maybe that is where the confusion is [long story, but in
essence
I bought my van for $600. after a engine fire toasted it and when we where
putting it
back together we couldn't find anything but a junked 84 in our area...I  will
get the
proper harness one day when I get the funds ;-]

On pgs. 28.11 and 28.28 of Bentley it shows the idle stabilizer I'm
referring to, and
on 28.11 it shows it on the firewall as I have placed it, BUT I noticed  that
it is for a
Air-cooled AFC system!  My bad!  Can anyone tell me if the  configuration
that it is
supposed to have behind the firewall has the same part?  Are the  actual
components
the same?  Just wondering...
thanks,
