<< I have just learned that my van('86 Syncro) is under recall bulletin PB, to
 have it's fuel tank replaced.  Have any of the other Syncro owners out there
 had this done?  What is the problem specifically that replacing the fuel tank
 solves?  The reason that I ask is because I really really do not like the
idea
 of turning my van over to my local VW dealer.  It is running very well right
 now, and I am worried that they would mess something up doing a job of this
 size(pulling the tranny etc.)  Any information would be appreciated.  Thanks.

just like the "falling down overhead a/c duct" recall on the '86- up vans that
many dealers have done a botch job of remedying...
"If it ain't broke...don't fix it".....
