A new life begins

I called a really handy friend of mine, Ian, to look at the van.
He sez "Ain't nothin wrong with the timing or carb, you got a stuck caliper, stealing all your HP"
I'm like DOH!
New caliper & rotor, WOAH!

Well, kind of.
Still some random carb/choke issues, but the caliper thing did make a 100% difference.

Runs like crap when it's cold. When it warmed up, has a tendency to die at lights & not want to re-start, unless ether is used (damn I hate that stuff)

The biggie though is that on hills at about 33% throttle, it acts like it's running out of gas.
