I'm still struggling with a surging/idle problem on my 88 westfalia van and was wondering if anyone knows or has access to tsb's. I've cleaned my Idle stabilizer valve a couple of times as well as my MAF metre. No real change.
Symptoms...
I start in the morning (or cold start) and seems ok, idle around
1100rpm with a slight flutter to 1200-1300rpm. After a few minutes of driving, I stop at a light with the clutch pushed in and the rpm is holding a steady 2000rpm. I have tried to kick it down but no change. I have noticed after driving a while on the highway speed going down hills I tend to drop into neutral to save gas. The rpm will always be at normal steady idle speed. Is the maf sensor getting proper air now? This concern has gradually come about so It didn't just suddenly start. I found this tsb # on vanagon.com but don't even know if it applies to my symptoms Vanagon 1988 88-N08 Fuel "Terminal Illness" (Idle System Stabilizer System Changes)Does anyone know about this?
