thanks for the chuckle.
you make it sound as though if one has a Bentley shop manual for a vanagon
they will absolutely be able to find and fix *any* fuel injection or running
issue that could ever come up .........
it's not quite like that, let's say,
but having the Bentley vanagon manual is essential, yes.
Fer sure good buddy.
you need one for sure, but having one is no gurantee that one can find and
fix every last thing that could possibly  go wrong in a vanagon regarding
how it runs.
or stated another way .............we *wish* it would always be that you do
a test that's in the book, the results point to a certain action being
needed, you do that, and all is right again. If only !
but you gotta have one, absolutely, that green vanagon bible.
