911 Fill up issue

[wayne art]

The new CA gas nozzles will not work on my 85 911. Tried every angle, nozzle position. Three different gas stations. Help!

Hmmm. I have not heard about that? What part of CA are you in? When the fancy evap nozzles first came out, I remember some had to hold back the big sealing flange thing by hand to get the gas flowing and then be very careful to watch and shut it off before the gas overfilled. If you've ever filled a gas can, it's the same technique...

Friend of mine has had problems at times and he now carries one of the yellow factory filler nozzles and he attaches it to the end of a gas handle nozzles. He says he fills it in slowly but they may be a small fix if needed?
