Subject:Can anybody in Phoenix area give me a ride?

Went to get the new (to me) '87 Syncro registered today.  Hmm, need a
emissions test.  Go to the test site - "Hey, we can't test your van - it's
leaking gas!".

Crap.

So I am going to bring it into Totally German Auto tomorrow (they are on
east Main in Mesa).  I know this is a long shot, but can anyone give me a
ride home from there (I live at 16th and Bell in Phoenix) - please pmail if
you can help.

 I am hoping against all that it is the "coupler" between the gas tank and
the firewall, and not the vent lines which would require the three step
repair procedure:

1) Remove engine
2) Remove transaxle
3) Remove gas tank

Reassembly is the reverse of removal...
