When I had the cranking-but-no-firing syndrome a couple of weeks ago, a
new ignition switch did the trick.

Subject: Stranded in Orlando Florida

All,
  I got a call from one of our brethren (Larry) driving an 85 Vanagon
and
he's stuck in North East Orlando Florida near I-4, SR 434, and SR436
near
Maitland.  Where he is EXACTLY, I'm not sure but he says he's near
there.
Anyhow, he tried to contact (via the AIRS webbsite) Tim  Hannick who's
near
there, but he gets the voice mail for "David Barclay"?  Tim, did you
change
your number?  Regardless, I gave him some contacts for that part of the
state but I'm almost two hours away so if any of you are near there and
can
assist he could use the help.  His engine cranks over but that's it.  He
replaced the fuel filter a few weeks ago and made a 500 mile trip no
problem.  No other signs (according to his eyes and ears).  His cell is
404
579 3646.
