Ouch! This seems harsh!
I'd worry about damaging the fuel pump like this, would I be wrong?

Re: stalling
That is the factory recommended fix and A number of people on the T44 Audi forum
have used the fix to correct the problem.
Before you take this as a solution be sure to check if your tank is one that the
lining flakes off from and see if you have crud in the bottom of the tank.
don't worry about the pump itself, the screen is in a plastic cage that
surrounds the intake. The pump itself can easily handle the crud being forced
through it.

I don't know about the slightly earlier 90, but my later spec 80, and my
older mk2 GOlf (the mk1 golf used to suffer from rotten filler necks)
both have plastic tanks. I'd suspect the 90 would too.
The problem does sound similar to the hall sender issue my mk2 did
suffer from though.
