Swapped and put new switch on with no change. Clean Grounds again. Check ox sensor wiring ok,Van runs fine dead cold. When it is warm and just off idle, I get a severe surge and runs rich. If you disconnect temp switch wire it runs great. Don't know what I missed??? We also changed the ECU and the air flow box. HELP thanks Dan ____________________ ORIGINAL MESSAGE: _____________________ Hello Gentlemen, I have a 85 Vanagon that came in for a severe surging just off idle, it's fine at half throttle. We did a full tune-up, checked for vacumn leaks, replaced all engine ground wires, checked fuel pressure. The only thing we can do to make it better is to disconnect the coolant temp. switch. We changed the switch with no success. We swapped air flow box, ECU, checked idle switches, and did a pin out test at the computer. If anyone has any more suggestions they would be greatly appreciated. Thanks guys, Bob.
