Default 87 jetta wolfsburg siphoning issue

Hi recently got a 87 jetta (gas) and my wife put diesel in it by accident. Unfortunately our siphoning hose is not work (getting blocked by something). Does anybody know if there is a anti-siphon device installed in this model? and how the heak do i get the diesel out if its got one of those. No tank plug/valve and the fuel lines run inside the tank. So only way is to siphon or remove tank.

any help please!!

Welcome to the forum.

If you can't get a siphoning tube in the tank your going to have to run the fuel pump in the tank to pump all the fuel out into containers. You either feed the fuel pump with a 12v supply or you find someone with VAG-COM\VCDS to operate the fuel pump. After that you need to replace the fuel filter.
