Troubleshooting

  2. remove any out-dated syntax override.

  2. Choose Package Control: Enable Packages
  3. Find CSS and hit Enter

Remove overrides

  1. call Menu > Preferences > Browse Packages..
  2. Look for CSS folder
  3. Remove it or at least delete any CSS.sublime-syntax in it

Notes

Development on the Sass syntax is currently frozen. It's too high maintenance since it's so different from CSS. Furthermore, the Sass language doesn't support various features that SCSS does: it's not left behind by the Sass team per se, but SCSS is the primary language right now. That being said, if you want to improve the Sass syntax, contributions are more than welcome.
