Removing diesel low flow filler restrictor

[BrianJ]

Just did mine, using a small electronics 'wella' soldering iron. There is a reduction in pipe diameter further into the opening, but I think the high flow nozzle will go in enough and make a partial seal against the reduced pipe. I will test it next week when I have enough money to buy some fuel. !!

Thanks everyone who responded and provided help in this thread.

I never knew about low/hi flow diesel pumps. Where are these high flow pumps located? Do all servo's have a mix of both pumps?

Hi flow pumps are for trucks big fuel tanks and some servos have only hi flow pumps that are not good for the majority of diesel cars. I have no problems filling up with hi flow nozle, just need to be patient and find the correct angle.

Yes I agree Brian the cost of diesel and petrol is outrageous , but when you look at how crude is refined diesel is one of the first part of the process so why is it so expensive ?? Then why do we have to have 3 different levels of RON in petrol if car makers were smart they should design all petrol cars engines run on one RON level this would then stop Fuel companies from ripping us off . If engineers are so smart they should be able to do this , then we would not see a price difference of between 12cents for 91 up to 95 then another ten cents to 98 . Crazy .

Update........I have to make the hole a bit bigger. Today, the high flow nozzle just started to go in the hole, and then it got tight.

Yes Brian I held onto it with the narrow nosed pliers and pulled it out - if I can find it in my shed I will post a photo.- D off road.
