YES, Unless someone has installed a solid lift cam sometime are another.
solid or hydraulic cam/lifters? If it is hydraulic, and the lifters are pumped up, you need to tighten the rocker nut until it *just* starts to grasp the pushrod (spin the pushrod while tightening the nut to feel it) Now, tighten the nut from the 12 o'clock position to the 4 o'clock position. Do this with each rocker with each cylinder at TDC of the compression stroke. Cams have cross duration, so the cylinder must be TDC on compressions stroke before adjusting the valves of that cylinder.
It would depend on the thermostat, probably 195 degrees.
Have the timing checked , sounds like it might be off.
A T150 is a top loader, so cannot be a linkage problem, but could be a clutch linkage problem. You didn't say if it ground gears, or was just tough to pull into gear. Anyway, check clutch adjustment.
From 25 to 30 mpg. It all depends on how you drive it, city or hi-way driving, fast or slow. The bugs are really reliant on keeping the valves adjusted for better running and mileage.
There is no way of saying exactly what the price is. There are too many factors to consider. Rust, mileage, status of title, etc. You can get an old rusty one for $500 or one that has been well kept or rebuilt for upwards of $16,000. Hope this helps!

$1500 - $1800 if there is ZERO rust < $1000 if there is rust Rebuilt engine does not matter...they can be rebuilt for a few hundred dollars by just about anybody with a clymer manual and decent set of tools. Regardless of the nostalgia value, they are not reliable and never will be no matter how much money you sink into it. If you purchase one of these vans with the idea of cruising across the country, make sure you are a good shade tree mechanic and can fix common mechanical problems. If not, buy a Honda and don't worry about it.
