[Tigers] vapor recovery gas nozzles

[Howard gentry]

greetings,
     Those bellows vapour catchers are not prevelant all over the country..I haven't seen very many of them east of Cal.  I drive to Denver a lot, from the east coast region....My trips seldom find any bellows pumps anywhere on the route..If one is encountered, they are very short and quite soft..no problems.

Lately I have stopped at a couple of Chevron stations in SoCal with a new kind of vapor recovery gas nozzle. The bellows and spout are quite short. Attempting to gas up the Tiger through the standard flip-lid gas filler is nearly impossible. Gas spills out no matter how hard you try to seal the bellows, even with considerable pressure against the filler neck.  Or it keeps shutting off. Fortunately there are other brand stations with the more typical style of nozzle, but one wonders if this is now a new required type being phased in. Anybody else run into this problem?
