I've not looked into how, but that would be a good mod.
All, when I had my old D3 it had a Long Ranger (110l) tank fitted which meant it was possible to use the Fast flowing Truck pumps at service stations as the opening was replaced with a much wider mouth. Now we have a 21foot caravan I suspect I will be visiting the truck pumps more often (ease of access). I assume it would be possible to remove the standard filler (sans misfueling device) and fit a wider fuel "neck" etc. Any thoughts?
cheers

I would be keen to see this done as well as hi flow is so much quicker

Did the earlier LM/L322s have the misfueling device? If not, they might be able to take the High Flow nozzles now. My P38 does.

That little flap looks like it would come out with some extra long nose pliers, a twist and pull...I'd hate to see the little spring drop down the neck though![]()
I nearly gave it a go last week, except for that bit of doubt and my pliers weren't long enough. Maybe something shoved in to catch any loose bits, a flexible magnet to retrieve them.....and someone else to try it first and post a vid??
I can still use hi-flow, but need to take care with nozzle placement and keep the pressure against the filler neck, no splashes yet ... touch wood.
Would the filler from a D1 be a straight swap they take a hl flow nozzel
Don't forget fast flow pumps are not as accurate in measurement . If your buying a thousand litres what's a litre or two difference. But it makes a big difference if your only buying 50 litres. This I was told by the Gilbarco man servicing the pumps and he said they are very inaccurate when not on full flow. So if you hold the Handel slow them down as you usually have to do you are not getting a correct reading.Then if your a very busy person a minute saved is one bettered used than standing at a fuel pump.![]()
exactly, and the fact that some outlets will have 6 hi-flow pumps and 1 small pump which will be right beside the only LPG hose. Its more about getting on a pump.

http://www.measurement.gov.au/TRADEM...iquidFuel.aspx I can't see anything on the website or linked documents that specifies any difference to the required +/- 0.3% accuracy for a high flow pump.
Even if the accuracy was within 1% for a high flow I'd be happy.
