85 fuel filter remplacement?

I am having problems with my T2 stalling. I think it might be the fuel pump. I have to over rev the engine when in first gear, (now a bit more than previously), before I engage the clutch to get going. I stall more when first starting up. More engine revving solves this. I stalled on the highway whe...

Re: running on two cylinders

Thanks Kev. Feeling a little better now. The mechanics kept muttering about carb problems. I suspect it is a left side thing. The van passed MOT in June. I hope it is a minor problem that just needs a tweak. Now if I could only find a guy that knows t25's down here.
