I can't offer any advice, but I have a related (maybe) problem in my '89
Syncro.  When the tanks reaches about 3/4 full, the pump nozzle starts
acting like the tank is full.  I don't get splash-back, but the only way I
can get the tank completely full is to turn the nozzle 1/4 turn
counter-clockwise and gently squeeze in the last 4 gallons or so by hand.
It has done this the last two times I have refueled.

Any one have any suggestions about my situation as well?
