<P><FONT face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" size=3>So, I wanted to send out greetings to Mark the pilot of a Westy that I saw (and stopped to say "howdy") today (7 JAN 2007).<BR>It's a rare event to see any of the Vanagons down here, so I just wanted to take a second and say hello!</FONT></P>
<P><FONT face=Verdana>Also, I'm still down and out, but closing in on my problem (I think -- I have to stay positive).&nbsp; I believe my ECU is faulty, so I'm going to test that theory soon.&nbsp; And thanks to Mark, Eric and Doug for chiming in with helpful advice (and for Doug, thanks for spending some time on the phone with me).</FONT></P>
<P><FONT face=Verdana>I will post my final fix once I'm back on the road -- these intermittent problems are oh so fun......</FONT></P>
<P><FONT face=Verdana>FYI - my problem appears to be that my fuel pump does not get energized, the relay driven by the ECU seems to not engage.&nbsp; Furthermore, I have observed a situation now where the fuel pump does engage, but still no start.&nbsp; It seems to always be "fuel starved".&nbsp;&nbsp; I hope to be back on the road with my daily driver soon.</FONT></P>
<P><FONT face=Verdana>Thanks to all!&nbsp; I'll keep you posted.</FONT></P>
