I checked my fuel pump and it is OK. Seems I was chasing a ghost. There is
only a 3 sec fuel pump run when the ignition key is turned to the on
position. This only applies to wasserboxers. The 80-83 air-cooled Vanagons
don't do this. The pump turns on when you start the motor. Thanks Karl.

FreeBird still wants to stay dormant for the winter cause she still doesn't
want to start. I'll have to check for spark later. The weather is NOT
cooperating with me as it is 20 degrees and snowing. :-(

I'll keep you posted
