AB >> Syncro owners take note !!!!. GET the crud out of there so it doesn't rust!...I did several of these for the local VW dealer...his mechanics refused the job and the customers refused to pay the estimated cost of the "factory" repair..I got it down to where I could do it in 2+ hours. modified some tools etc... the WORST part is removing the stud plate to replace (weld on) the studs the break off..you have to figure out how to cut the circular plate after you've driven the thing back into the tank, all the time trying to not drop it to the bottom and working through a 3 inch hole....

Ah to be young and foolish again..and covered with gas, mud and having smashed your head for the 5th time...grrrrrrrrrrrr.....
