RE: [DML] gas overflow



Aliza,

I have never been able to pump gas into my Delorean at the max flow rate.
It always ends up spitting gas at me. The explanation I got in a tech
session at Cleveland was that the air vent valve was most likely at fault.
The line that lets air escape has a valve to revent gas from flowing out if
the car is inverted. Pumping the gas at full volume can make that valve
slam shut, and therefore make the gas get backed up.
