check that the throttle switch is making contact at idle.
Most vanagons I see have that function not working .
I find the timing too advanced commonly too.

Subject: 1987 Vanagon Stalls

Hello All-

I'm new to the list. Hoping the collective knowledge can help me. I have a
1987 Weekender. Runs great except for intermittent stalling at idle. I have
replaced all fuel lines and injector seals, oxygen sensor, and idle
stabilizer valve, and done a full tune up. Going to check for vacuum leaks.
Any other suggestions. Thanks!
