GeneralDisorder Posted March 4, 2004 Share Posted March 4, 2004 Remove the tank and take it to a local radiator shop. They are generally equiped to deal with plugged up tanks. Likely the pickup tube is rusted solid, or stuffed up with varnish. GD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MilesFox Posted March 4, 2004 Share Posted March 4, 2004 does the tank have a drain plug? my 83 and 84 wagons had them, but maybe they didnt have them pre 83. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GeneralDisorder Posted March 4, 2004 Share Posted March 4, 2004 Hatch tanks won't work - different size due to the smaller wheelbase. GD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Qman Posted March 4, 2004 Share Posted March 4, 2004 Also the wrong generation of body. "80 hatch is gen2 and '81 Brat is gen1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
