Subject:DELAYED STARTING!

1984 Wesfalia � 1.9 L Waterboxer - 115,000 miles � Rebuilt Motor
One Owner � Two Year old battery in good shape.
Twice within the last two months I turned the key to start � nothing happens!
Kept the key in start position and after about three(3) seconds the van
stated and ran normally.
Checked & tightened connections to batery, starter, grounds to transmission &
left head.
Thanks in most part to this venerable list, the van runs & looks like it did
in April 1984 when I bought it new. I cannot say enough good about the folks
on this list!!
Any thoughts on this occurance would be much appreciated.
Rey
