Ed,
Actually no they don't. I checked earlier this morning and they indeed sell one but they did not know whether it would fit a diesel or not (never mind a CUCV). This point was unclear to me as well so at lunchtime I did a little recon of a local boneyard and managed to check 2 different mid 80s vintage gasoline chevys and one mid 70s series gasoline GMC and all of the fuel tank filler neck hoses were definitely of a smaller diameter. This wasn't by much but they were absolutely smaller. The fuel tanks themselves even looked different and had some kind of an extra flange. I think the diesels must be bigger so that they can partake of the nice fast pumps used by the big rigs and the big diameter flexible nozzles (sometimes named after a donkey's part) that fit on the jerry cans and other containers.
