The clicking is probably from the vaccuum switch, there's 2 mounted , on
the passenger strut tower.
Ones for when you turn the a/c on, it bumps up the idle a little, but I
don't know off hand what the 2nd one is for.

Deja vue... The '84 oddball.

Only late '84 Sciroccos had the larger tank, it goes by the last 6 digits
of the VIN number, 022 075 and later.

My '84 Scirocco is 015 254, what is your VIN number?

I've seen 3 different '84 Scirocco types:
Early '84's have the old fuse panel with the piggy-backed relays, as
shown in the '80-84 Bentley.
Mid '84's have the new fuse/relay panel.
Late '84's have the larger tank, w/transfer fuel pump, spacesaver tire,
different exhaust and hangers, 
and I think they came with the big rear spoiler.

I think all the late '84's were built 01/84 and later.

Nate, what are the last 6 VIN digits on your 2/84 Scirocco?
