Gas tank filler adapter?

Post by jhellman »

Hi all,
I've seen folks with a fuel tank adapter for use with California gas pumps with the large plastic smog control on the nozzle. I've done an internet search and just can't find one. Pushing the smog collector back often results on spilled fuel when I fill my tank.

I'd appreciate any lead you can provide.

Thanks!

I think Don Medina has one of these, or maybe it's Trish's: http://www.aerostich.com/e-z-fill-nozzle-key.html

Saw it when we stopped for gas on the way to Hurley, thought it was cool -

I bought it for Trisha back in 2007 when she got her Gold Wing Trike. I bought it from Aerostich.

I always grab a handful of paper towels from the towel dispenser to catch any excess that may drip on the tank. The emission sleeve is a pia...a handful of paper towels usually work better than a pair of gloves. :thmup:
