A quick question here.  I was wondering just how often should the injectors
be replaced on a 86 Vanagon with a 2.1 motor?  Is there a service life on
these, or is it one of those things sort of like if it seems to work, keep
your mits off?
Thanks,

Easy one.... one or more FI injectors is leaking overnight into the
combustion chamber, a classic problem! have a GOOD mechanic do a fuel
pressure test, if it does't hold pressure, have the fuel rail remove, and
just watch the yellow tip of the each injector... one will leak.
