Breathing problem?  You mean like too many fuel vapors hanging around the fill
up spout?  That doesn't sound too healthy...  I know that the owners manuals
for both my '84 and '87 state that the tanks are 19.1 gallons, and that's about
what I can get in them (have gotten more than 19.1 in the '84 before, but the
thing was stalling at every stoplight I approached it was so low on fuel...)
 Looks like I need to look into both of these things about that recall.
