Check the aux air regulator. It may have burned out.

Subject: [tcb] Bus Idle issue 



Hey guys - my 72 bus with a '78 2000cc fuel injected engine is having a issue 
idling, When i first start it cold it'll idle, after 5 min of driving when i 
push in the clutch while slowing down or pull up to a stop sign in neutral the 
bus dies, she restarts just fine everytime, but it's getting annoying starting 
the bus 10 times on the way to work, or trying to gas and break at the same 
time. I thought it was probably a vacuum leak so i had good year smoke it, 
there was not vac leak anywhere. 

Any ideas? Mass Air Flow sensor was one buddy's guess but i dont know how to 
trouble shoot it. 


Thanks,
