Hi
Part ordered from Brickwerks.What a great website.Local garage told me that the van would run better with a vacuum advance unit. That was easy! Thanks.

there seems to be a little spate of failing vac advance units on 1.9s,(or people figuring out that fault) probably an age thing, vw designed the bus to last 10 years 100k miles so they generally do better than that eh
