My '84 Vanagon made it the 347 miles to my FL home w/o anything bad
happening on Tuesday evening; and I drove it back home this afternoon
again w/o problems.  Fuel economy was dismal but engine seemed to want
to run to the high side of the green color at 4400 rpm.  I was checking
speed with my GPS and 4600 rpm put speed near 80 mph.   I have about
25,000 miles on Boston Bob long block I put in 7 years ago.  Automatic
transmission was rebuilt this past April.
