Hi Tony,

It is a common problem for sure, replace filler neck and flush the tank.

Welcome to the club Tony.  It is indeed a common problem as the ceck runs down the arch and therefore corrodes quicker than most places.  You can experience problems in the tank, fuel lines and injectors if you have a rusty filler neck.  To be safe I would replace the fuel lines, fluch the tank and replace the filler neck.

Welcome to the mk1 family mate and if you get stuck post in the technical sections and I'm sure someone can help  :wink:
