    I think there is a difference as the japs take an age to fill up opposed to the UK ones, i'm not sure why but i presume there is a restriction in the jap's, got a feeling their garage nosles are longer the uk forecourts.

    i find it you push the nozzle down (so its effectly point further up it works better. if you hold it up (i.e nozzle down) it cuts out all the time... :)

    Both tanks are the same as far as fitting.

     

    My Uk car with Uk tank is a pain to fill as well, but you can try different positions and its a bit better, mines the 7 oclock position... lol

    I find if I turn the handle of the nozzle about 30 degrees towards the cap cover that works a treat otherwise its a pain and cuts out all the time

    Its even harder to get a diesel nozzle in, have to really force it.....try it, see what I mean.

    What kind of condition is the tank in mate and what would you be asking for it?

     

    cheers
