Hi Zoltan.
If your son doesn't have a Vanagon Bentley manual and if his funds are
limited, a used copy of the Haynes Air Cooled Vanagon manual can be
found for not too much money. If he lives in the US, here's one for
sale in Eugene Oregon:
https://eugene.craigslist.org/pts/d/eugene-vw-service-manuals/7357095674.html
I'm quite sure people on this list will be more than happy to help him
solve the no start issue.
Neil.
