The 83.5 Westy has not been run for a few weeks due to the transmission issues but today I went to take it out and had some problems. 

First, the van would not start, starter does not engage at all, I suspect ignition switch and ordered one and will be here tomorrow.

The other issue is it's running bad, it's just surging instead of accelerating ,  there is a video here https://www.facebook.com/bryan.feddish/posts/10208213810756190?pnref=story . No matter how high the throttle it just surges and does not accelerate.  I am going to work on it today.

This van has been running great up until now, this is really odd behavior.
