Replaced the fuel filter and tested around the foothills east of Seattle and
seems to run fine! Still has a hard time starting after sitting idle but not as
bad as before.

Have decided to drive from Seattle area to LA area - any stellar places to stay
around Shasta and LA?

Thanks,

Andree

I got my van back from the mechanic - I had forgotten that I only have a white
square fuel filter before the pump, with no filter after.

They said when it was hot the pump wouldn't work, and they tried banging on it
at that point and the van fired right up.

I'll probably buy that pump $109.00 pump - evidently it has slightly different
connectors on it.
