Re: 91 jeep wrangler overflows fuel from the nozzle
I've found my '93 filler tube to be quite temperamental, but it works
fine if you work with it. I usually try to pay attention to how much
gas has gone in, the I slow the pump down for the last gallon or so.
Also, try angling the gas pump nozzle down into the filler tube.
And keep a rag handy for cleaning up the spillage.

Re: 91 jeep wrangler overflows fuel from the nozzle
It sounds like your '91 might have the "15" gallon tank. If this is the
case what you have is a 20 gallon tank with a plastic hose inserted down
5 gallons into the tank which leaves a large air space above which can
blow back when filling. The hose can be pulled out most of the way to
convert to 20 gal and eliminate the blow back.
