The neck goes through the body into the area where the first aid kit, and jack are, and then through the body again to go under the car to the tank.
And it cannot tolerate biodiesel AT ALL. I replaced mine with a new one, and a month later, maybe 3 tanks, it has a hole melted in it. And I'm quite careful about filling. I would just give up on this one.
