I just called Fred's Garage in Redwood City, CA about having
some work done on my '90 syncro, including changing the coolant.
This garage comes highly recommended from both vanagon.com
and a co-worker.  When I asked about using phosphate-free
coolant, she said that there is no need since they've found
that the heads in the phosphate-free coolant engines are
*more* pitted than the 'regular' coolants.   hmmmmm......
Looks like i'll be supplying my own...
