Added tank overfill warning to FAQ
Hi folks,
I've just added a warning in the FAQ to avoid overfilling to the top of filler tube the gas tank. There have been reports of several $1,000 tank replacements.

Re: Added tank overfill warning to FAQ
The biggest danger is probably stopping for gas and having an attendant jam every last drop of gas he can into the tank. That happened to me once. I expected the pumps to be self-serve, but an attendant was eager to fill the car for me, at the self-serve price, and he got carried away, trying for a bigger sale. Luckily, I didn't have any problems. It may have been because it was very cold, and the gasoline didn't expand.
