Question Gas In The TANK

I know this question is pretty stupid but since the high prices of gas this days I need all the help I can get. I was wondering how you guys put gasoline in your tank of your mustang , I usually spill some, very little now but I still spill some so I was wondering how do you guys put fuel in your cars? How do you guys insert the hose in your tank?

Well I never actually manage to put any gas in my tank without spilling. So don't feel to bad. Besides that sometimes I have to go back home to clean the paint. I always try to get one of those pump things that doesn't have the spring loaded contraption which is very stupid. Some of that oxygen removal crap. Im worried I might break the plastic on the gas nosel.

Try holding the handle "up" at like 2 o'clock or the other way at 10 o'clock. You will find the magic position. You might have to try different gas stations and different speeds of filling. I have my station with a certain pump at that station that I can even use the slower notch on the "auto fill" clip on the handle and it does not spill a drop.
