Gas Tank Recall HELP!!!



I had the same problem with my 85, no recall to be found, I grabbed a cabby
tank (same) and got it redone (clean and pressure tested) for 75$ and
installed it myself (somewhat of a pita) rear axle as to be dropped but
feasible if you have 4-8 hrs to work in a garage.

=>Oh-oh...

=>Well, they're pulling my car up by VIN. Is it possible that my
=>car might be an early 87 and not have the recall?
=>
=>I just called another dealer after getting off the phone with
=>VWoA (who didn't find anything), and they said that the recalls
=>are 2 digit (letter) codes. They also only found the PC Intank
=>Fuel Pump recall, but not the tank. Anyone know the code?

=>Thanks,

=>Make sure that they're actually looking up for an '87 and not an '86 ('86
=>had NO gas tank recall even though it had the same problem).  It
=>cost me big
=>bucks to replace the tank in my '86.

=>HTH.
