Question for Thom, Vanagon Idle.

Thom(or other helpfull van nut)

I have been looking all over the net trying to find the idle adjustment screw location for my 1980 Van. I think she's a little low and just want to try raising her a lil. Any help is greatly appreciated. I did read that some do not have an adjustment! Is that true?

Sounds like Island has got you covered.

Another good resource is www.thesamba.com they have a tech BB specifically for VWs.
