Yes, the big nozzle barely fits into my tank as well. Last night I was able to get one of the big truck nozzles to stay put. It must be that enough fillups with big nozzles has succeeded in bending whatever that sheetmetal piece is inside my car's filler neck. I usually hold the nozzle in my tank and gently squeeze the flow open. What I'm really trying to figure out now is how much more my tank will hold with my filler neck facing downhill vs. facing uphill. I got 29.7 mpg last night, if my gallons are correct, but I was expecting more like 27 mpg. Not that I'm complaining; diesel is down to $1.119 in NJ
