I recently purchased a 1988 VW Cabriolet Convertible. Even though it is an> old car, I like it. However, some things about it are peculiar (aren't we> all !). For example, the gasoline will gush out all over the ground if I

On the other hand, if I go to a gas station that still uses the older (and> longer) nozzles, there is no spillage.

Some of those vapor-recovery hoods on gas nozzles prevent you from getting
the nozzle deep enough into the filler tube to push that little flap

the nozzle past the flap. I've had the same thing you described happen to
me.
