Re: [T3] Fuel Guage Sender Cleaning

["Dave Hall" <dave@hallvw.clara.co.uk>]

I read a lot about varnish, pipes clogging solid, and all sort of 'what do
you
expect if it was last used 6 months ago and you didn't use fuel
preservative' comments.
I just put some more gas in if it's a bit low, attach a charged battery and
give it a go.  I've not had varnish problems at all.  My Squareback hadn't
been used by the PO for 10 years but still ran fine, needing just a new
muffler.
I didn't clean anything out on the Fastback before starting to use it again
after a 4-year break for restoration.
The tanks and senders recovered froŲzĀKType 3s have all looked
beautifully clean.

Do you think this clogging is a problem of generally hotter weather, or a
different quality of gas in the States?
