OK, I dont remember my Baur being this hard to fill with gas when it was running.

I cant seem to be able to fill up without it stopping several times in the process and overflowing.

It all turns into some acrobatic exercise with the pump nozzle.

Is there a way to upgrade or improve this?

Did your vent lines get crimped when you put the tanks back in? I had this exact thing happen to me a month or so ago. It wouldn't fill for beans.

Sorry, this is for my 323i the white one. I was saying that I had not driven my Baur in years because of the restoration, and I dont remember it being this hard to put gas in when it was running.

I will look at the vent lines.
