Thanks for that. You installed this on a diesel Vanagon?
If this was an issue before, did you notice if this new bushing reduced
surging going from no throttle to throttle, just off idle?
i.e. driving around at parking lot speeds
or over speed bumps.

I'm about to order a new bushing from Chris.

Of note to others, measure the bushing you're replacing.
There's 2 sizes I'm aware of.

Neil.
