 I have *never* been able to put more than about 14.5 gals  into it (and yes,
 it does read full afterwards).  On Friday, I let the needle get deep into
 the "red" zone before I had a chance to fill up, and guess what?  15 gallons
 was all it took! >>


 Just this past Sunday I ran my syncro past the red zone. I was running on
fumes. I filled it up ALL the way to the rim with fuel. I was able to queeze
in 18.2 gallons. Usually I'm able to get in around 16 to 17 gallons. I also
have problems with the fuel nozzle shutting off around 13 to 14 gallons, it
pisses me off.
 Oh well. See ya, Michael.
 87 syncro
 87 quattro.
