Hey all, So two quick questions: First, I recently realized that my Idle Stabilizer Control Valve wasn't working (no audible humming or vibrations). Upon performing the Bently's checks I think it is actually my Idle Stabilizer Control Unit that is the problem. After doing some checking at the price of these items new I thought I would see if anyone knew of a good place to find these things used. (87 GL, Westy, Automatic, with AC) I am located in Southwestern Ontario (Guelph Specifically) and if anyone knows of a good junk yard or has a spare lying around their garage that they would be willing to part with I would appreciate the help. The second question is whether anyone from this area knows of a decent mechanic that knows their way around a vanagon. I have been taking it an hour away for servicing - but have been looking for something more local. I have checked around on various sites but can't find anything very close. Thanks in advance, James
