Fillpipe Restrictor: Description and Operation

The fuel tank is equipped with a restricted filler pipe opening that allows only an unleaded fuel nozzle to be inserted.

The restrictor consists of a narrow opening in the fuel tank filler pipe, covered by a spring steel trap door. The smaller unleaded fuel nozzle will fit through the narrow opening and push the trap door aside, allowing normal filling. Leaded fuel nozzles will not fit through the narrow opening.

The restricted fuel tank filler pipe is manufactured as an assembly and must be serviced by removal and replacement with a new filler pipe. The fuel tank filler pipe is not to be modified in any way.
