5 miles per gal in a Vanagon? Well perhaps if you regap the plugs
to.0065,remove two plug wires and turn the distributor 10 degrees either
direction. now if it will run maybe 5mpg. But since I didn't read anything
on poor performance I can only come up with three theories. Your return from
the back of the pressure regulator is clogged, which I doubt. You never
shift out of first gear while pulling a 20 ft trailer loaded with
watermelons climbing Pikes Peak. Or you have a 16 year old in the area that
needs gas for his auto. Serious, a little but it is friday.   Marcus
