The OXS is activated by a mileage counter driven by the speedometer cable.
There is a reset button.
The rich running problem needs to be diagnosed and fixed.
Temp 2 sensor, Air flow meter tampered with, or other problem such as
injector balance causing a miss fire.

Subject: OSX light on

dear fellow vanogoniters

i know the story has been told before but i come to you to ask to hear it
again --

van-is-gone has sat for a year with out so much as a glance .. today with
boost varoom varoom (VW style)
1984 vanagon with a larger 2.1 motor from a syncro transplanted  - same
other stuff just the motor - runs a little rich and runs rough till it warms
up - seems to need accelerator held down hard to get going on hill rather
than smooth start and and the OSX light is on continuously

any suggestions
thanks
