Fuel fillers
I have the "typical" flip-style fuel filler on my car (see last photo here... http://narwani.net/neil/cars/cobra_photos.html), and I hate that I keep getting fuel splashed out when I fill up the car. Then I scurry to wipe it up before it runs into the cockpit, etc. I'm wondering how the fillers on "regular" modern cars work -- is there some way to use the mechanism from that on my filler cap, so I can just set the automatic stop on the pump handle and let it do it's thing? I know there's a sort of a flapper-door on them, and them some type of drain, but I'm sure there's more to the whole filler mechanism to keep it from spilling.
Anyone know if there's a solution to this?
Cheers,
-Neil.
