Got the bus back on the road and ready for inspection. All new brakes (lines, hoses, etc), Bearings, and a whole plethora of other things including adjusting the timing on the 1.9 Engine, and i have a few issues. First and most importantly, if accelerating from a stop, it hesitates bigtime and nearly stalls out. Im talking pedal on the floor, clutch all the way up (tried varrying the speed of releasing the clutch), it just about dies. Its catastrophic on hills, it cannot hold without the engine almost dying. I dont think its a cluth problem, i think its an engine problem. The clutch is newer, and while the problem was existant before, its MUCH more noticeable now. Then theres the random oil light....cant find the problem here.... -Craig -85GL Sunroof
