Title: Air flow meter 1976-9 bus
Post by: 4mack on September 16, 2017, 10:51:17 AM
Hey guys, I'm looking for an operating air flow meter for my Westy. I have  a 2.0l fuel injected motor.  I have three that don't work. I will buy a used one if it's in working condition. Has anyone found a place to buy nos, or brand new, or bought a remanufactured one with success. Tell me your stories please.

Thanks
Neil

Wow Niel, you should buy a lottery ticket, finding 3 dead ECU's is rarer than a 4 leaf clover.

You'll have to be much more specific about what exact system you have, there's many different ECU's between 76 and 79, 75-76 std, 75-76 auto, 77-78 std, 77-78 auto, 79 std or auto and a California version of each as well.

What is your bus doing (or not doing) that makes you suspect the ECU?, it's the most robust component of the whole system and I have only seen 2 actual proven failures in the last 15 years out of hundreds that were swapped with no resulting change in the symptom.
