I have obtained more of those heavy duty "Syncro" air filters that made such a splash on the list last year. These fit all 2.1 liter ('86-91) Vanagons (Syncro or not), in place of the stock filter. They are genuine German Volkswagen brand, and were sold by the factory as an optional "heavy duty" air filter for off-road use, etc. on Syncros. They have a metal housing around them and are incredibly heavy duty. Original price is about $65.00, which is why not many people buy them. If you'd like to learn more about them, there's plenty in the archives; all of it praise from people who bought them when I had them last year. The price is $18.95 and they'll be here the middle of next week. Anyone with an '86-91 van should snatch up a couple because these are just incredible pieces of work for this price (which is not much more than the cost of the stock "light duty" filter). The website price will be higher, but if you specify you are a listmember in the "comments" section of the order form, you will get the $18.95 price. Or you can order by part number, toll free, at 1-888-819-DEPOT. The part number is 025 129 620B.
