Took the van out today after resealing the gas tank and replacing all the fuel lines. It has been parked for a few months -- long story, not relevant. The engine (2.1 WBX) started easily, and idled well. However for a minute or two after driving off, there was a lot of stumbling. Then, suddenly, the engine started running well, and did so for the rest of the drive (about 15 miles, with a couple of short stops). A couple of hours later, the same symptoms. So, there seems to be some problem that affects running under load right after a cold start-up, but which does not impede the actual starting or idling. Thoughts? Allan -- 1991 Vanagon GL
