Steve,

Did you ever swap your 1.9L in your 85 Vanagon for a new motor?

Sometimes the sensor wires get a "nick" in the middle, and cause resistance
when corrosion sets in.  This can affect the ECU.  Likely a bad sensor or
wire... I replaced my 1.9L with a 2.1L, and it has been a few years since
I've worked on a 1.9L, maybe someone else can pipe in.

Subject: My van runs like crap when it's cold.

I tried to search for this in the archives but I couldn't find anything.� I
could swear I saw this topic before.� It sputters and stalls and generally
sounds like crap until it warms up.� Then it runs great.� It seems to be
flooding.� When it stalls it takes a couple of minutes before it will start
again.� Am I right in suspecting the fuel pressure regulator?
Thanks again,
Steve
