Subject:      Wahhh!!! The flood gates are open - gas everywhere!!!!
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1; format=flowed

Filled up the ol' fuel tank on the 88 GL today - all the way to the top.
Haven't done that in a while. Went in to pay, and looked back from
inside the gas station and gasoline was pouring out all over underneath
the van from what appeared to be about the middle from where I was
standing. By the time I got back to the van, the flood had stopped but
there was a puddle underneath. on the concrete. I pushed the van forward
clear of the concrete, waited a little while - I could really smell the
fumes. I fired her up and went home. Fortunately no fire.

So now what? No doubt I've got vent, overflow, and other hose problems.
Is there a website that describes how to attack this problem? I know the
tank will have to be dropped. When it comes out, I want to be sure and
address every single little issue that has to do with above that tank.
Anybody got a complete list of parts to get the job done fully and
completely, leaving no stone unturned??

All commentary will be appreciated greatly.

Thanks,
