Gas overflow problem
 

Just finished my '74 K5 and she's looking good! My only problem is when I go to fill her with gas, no matter how careful I am it will puke gas out the filler and down the side on my beautiful new paint job...)-;
It will even do it in the middle of fueling kind of like a "burp". Then always at the end. I've tried holding the nozzle rubber firmly to the side and still a problem. Any advice out there? Anyone else have this problem? Thanks

have you checked the tank fill vent hose

I’ve always done the ‘crank’!
Crank (rotate) the nozzle handle around until it’s at about 2 o’clock and fill it up.
You even need to do this on a properly vented tank.

Good advice guys-I'll try that next fill up. And also check the vent tube....

make sure your fill tube isn't pinched as well...there was a burb question on the same thing a while back..he changed fill tube and solved his problem
