Hello, my son stored his '83 Vanagon (diesel) at our home while on a
month long vacation. He has returned and can't get it to start and he
must return to his job in just a few days. We replaced the fuel filter
and charged the battery. It has been suggested that the motor has lost
it's "prime". If this is the problem, how do we "prime" the motor.
Please reply in simple lanquage, I'm not very good with mechanical
things.
Thanks for help!
Warren in Texas
