Thanks to Jeff, Dennis and Paul for the good info on this issue.
Particularly enjoyed the graphic link posted by Paul as the "Component
Description" schematic drawing kicks ass!

So much, however, for the hope of finding a small way to increase beastly
vanagon gas milage.  .  .  .

The only way I've been able to figure-out how to increase vanagon's gas
milage is to carry around a Honda Rukus motor scooter, which fits perfectly
into the bay of a vanagon, and gets about 90 mpg.  Whenever I park the
vanagon I use the Rukus for local running.  Which leads me to wonder if it
might be worthwhile to arc weld a special bracket which would bolt right to
the tow bumper purchased at Bus Depot, to carry around the Rukus motor
scooter.   That way I could still use the dining area for it's intended
purpose while not needing to unload the Rukus to do so.  At a total weight
of roughly 200 pounds, I wonder if anyone can tell me if that might be too
much weight suspended from the rear end of a vanagon for possible safetly
violation reasons?  I wonder if the extra rear end weight might negatively
effect road handling at hyway speeds.  Any and all opinions on this issue
gladly sought and welcomed.
