Years ago I decided to get a 2nd Vanagon identical to my 1st one.
It would be very convenient to swap AFM and ECU which may be your van's
problem. By any chance your idle stablizer's two connectors are not plugged
in? The two needs to be pluged to each other for timing adjustment. Once timing
is set they should be plugged back the stablizer. If they are not connected
and (not or) not plugged back to the stablizer the engine won't run.
