It's baaaaack! [Grumpy Van]
The van had been running well - so Sunday I swapped the diagnostic computer out for my old computer. Then -
The last two mornings have been damp and cold. I noticed yesterday the van was getting a little lumpy running first off on the way to work. This morning the van ran the first 2 miles at half power. Even at higher RPM's/lower gear. Every time I came to a stop along the way - the engine was idling high as well [ 1200 rpm?] Finally at another stop light - the van hiccupped and stalled. After a prolonged effort to start the van... it popped back to life and was fine. NO hesitation and idle back to normal.
Grrr. I never did the vanagon syndrome patch like I planned to. hmmm.. and 3 days till we leave for camping. This will be interesting.....
