Just yesterday I bought my first truck, a 1991 4.0L V6 Ranger. The previous owner told me to pump gas into it slowly or it will leak. I found that only at the absolute slowest speed, where the pump just begins to engage, could I pump gas into it without it leaking. It would probably take 30 minutes to fill it up from empty this way. Any faster and gas leaks out from above the gas tank and runs down the side. It doesn't always leak, just when filling up. Any ideas what could be causing this or what I could try to diagnose/fix it?
Thanks for any help! Most of my mechanical experience is with 70's honda motorcyles, so this is a pretty new realm for me.
