Jim, et al: Even though I don't have a fuel injected system in our Variant, I am keeping such emails for future reference when/if I stumble across a too-good-to-be-true T3 with fuel injection "problems." From what I read the past few months, the FI seems to be not as difficult to diagnose as I once thought. Thanks, all, for your info!
