I use the ocsiloscope all the time to test ignition systems and to look at the pattern on the screen. I have only looked at two vanagon patterns and the were both different than any other car I've seen. I'm begining to think that this might be a vanagon only problem. Maybe some of you VW guys have run in to this alot. my firing lines are close to 20KV and they are very erradic.Spark lines don't look good eather. I don't really have an idling nor preformance problem, but gas mileage is said to be very poor. Has anyone seen goofy scope patterns on Vanagons?
