'ca smog system' ?
there's only one version of US model 1983 1/2  1.9 liter waterboxer vanagon
engine.

air-cooled vanagons, those are 'Ca' or 'non-Ca'...............but
waterboxers.....only one version, pretty sure.
I mean, the Oregon and whatever waterboxer vans I've seen are no different
than the California ones I've known.
correct me if that's not correct.
