I can give it a try but the foam usually keeps me from filling it properly. When I fill up for the trip, I'll try slow filling and then squeak it in until it reaches a set point in the fill pipe.

I'm trying to make the fills exactly repeatable.

Just wait 10 sec and the foam goes away then add more fuel. Repeat until its all the way to the top. Thats what works for me anyway. It takes a bit of dexterity with the pump not to spill but its not too bad. Last tank 38.1mpg in the 87
