Subject:1984 Emissions
From:Melissa Mourkas

Hi all-

I am looking at purchasing a 1984, 1.9L Westfalia in Southern
California and want to be educated about emissions system before I
make an offer.  Does anyone know if all Vanagons came with CA
emissions by 1984 or were there still Vanagons sold with Federal
emissions systems?  How can I tell if the owner doesn't know?  I sold
my '81 with a Federal emissions systems because parts were NLA (the
van is headed out of state for its retirement).  I want to be certain
I am getting a CA system.  And yes, of course, I will insist it be
smogged and pass before I buy.

Thanks!
