Subject:Vanagon 2.1 Suddenly Dies- Need Help
From:Todd Olson
Date:Sun, 13 Jun 2010 08:25:02 -0400

Hello Volks Folks,

My friend Darren is having trouble with his Vanagon. So I thought I would
through his message up to the experts on the Vanagon list to see if any of
you have any thoughts. You can either reply to me and I will forward it to
him or you can send it direct to him at vr6vanagon@hotmail.com. See his
message below.

Once again, thank you to everyone for your help and advice!

Wishing you many miles of smiles in your Vanagon!

Todd Olson

88 vanagon 2.1 suddenly dies after warm up, will restart but then dies
quickly. If i let it set and cool for 10 minutes it will run a little
longer. if i let it sit over night it will go about 3 to 4 miles until it
gets warm then dies again. i checked fuel pressure and it was 35 to 40 psi
when running, I changed the temp sensor that goes to the computer and this
made no change. any thoughts or opinions on where i should look next would
be greatly appreciated. thanks in advance.
