Doesn't fit Rabbit MK1 Cabrio

Doesn't even come close to fitting MK1 VW Rabbit Cabrio and when I tried to fit it in the car the return date had already passed. It became irrevocable just 7 days ago.

Pros
  • Constant test results
Cons
  • There are nuances

Good fuel tank Mk1, almost perfect.

I installed this tank in my 81 Scirocco. The dimensions of the tank are identical to the standard tank. This appears to be the only aftermarket tank that has a weir cup installed around the fuel pickup. Unfortunately, none of the aftermarket tanks have a pre-strainer to keep debris out of your fuel pump. I recommend using the built-in pre-filter for your pump. Otherwise it's a good tank. Definitely worth it if you have an mk1 with a rotten fuel tank! Don't forget to replace the filler hose as…

Pros
  • super price
Cons
  • everything super

Holes for the outflow and return of the fuel in the wrong place

The quality of the tank is quite good. It lacks the internal filter screen of the original VW tank but has internal baffles. The big problem I have is that the fuel tank outlet and return ports are not in the right position compared to the stock VW tank. This causes severe glitches in the CIS fuel pump and requires me to completely relocate the pump. This can be a big headache if you are still using the original CIS fuel injection system and need to keep the stock pump and fuel accumulator. If…

Pros
  • nice thing
Cons
  • there is a negative

Correct tank for injection cars.

This is the only aftermarket tank I have found so far that has a matching fuel baffle/swirl tank inside. This tank was used on a fuel injected 1984 Rabbit GTI. Beware of other tanks that don't have a baffle inside. Spectra makes several different versions of this tank. If you have a fuel injected vehicle, this tank is the one for your application. If it doesn't, you'll be starving your fuel pump on sharp right turns with less than half a tank of gas. Ask me how I know! Note that this tank has…

Pros
  • Easy installation
Cons
  • Other interesting options are available.
