Subject:      1985 Vanagon fuel overflow?
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii

Hello, I'm new to the list and new to Vanagons...  Being a lifelong
air-cooled guy I have a few things to learn.  I recently experienced major
fuel spillage when fueling my Vanagon.  It seems that when the tank got full
and "burped", kicking the pump off, a couple (?) of  gallons of gas spilled
on the ground underneath the fuel tank.  I looked under the van and the fuel
appeared to be coming from above the tank...anybody experience this?  Any
ideas before I pull the tank and begin diagnosis the hard way?
