Incorrect refuelling guard on vehicles with diesel engines
The fuel filler tube on vehicles with diesel engines has been fitted with an in-
correct refuelling guard » Fig. 304.
If the diesel pump nozzle does not sit directly in the fuel filler tube, move it to
and fro with slight pressure to insert it correctly.

pump nozzle in some countries. When driving in these countries, the incorrect
fuelling protection should be removed by a specialist company.
