I told this story once,but I'll tell it here ,again.This is vanagon
content,and may help a future strandee. I ran out of gas in my driveway. I
had just driven home,and was going to go get gas first thing when I left
the next time. I thought I had some gas left. Well, I went out to my
vanagon to go somewhere,and it wouldnt run . It would start, but not
rev.What the ?? I got out my tools and meters out and started to find out
why.Is this  an electrical or fuel problem? After 15 minutes, I remembered
how a vanagon runs out of gas(dont ask). The engine will start and run, but
not rev, as the fuel in the lines is used up.The gas pressure goes down
till all is gone.Guess I cut  the margin a bit to tight that time.I swear I
had some gas left in there.It seems that there two types of vanagon owners.
Those that have run out of gas, and those that have not run out of gas
yet,but will.I went and got the lawnmower's gas can.
