            mine was very short on the 69 litre tank also - have had to use some very expensive pipe to make reach - have heard that some tanks have another piece of tube to fit inside of the neck ! is this true ?

              How many straps have you got on the tank Paul ?

              Do you have the insert between the jubilee clips and the filler neck ? Some std cars have these and others don't.
              Cheers Rob.

                Rob,
                got 4 individual straps that make up into 2 , one strap front to back and one side to side. No make up piece on filler neck. Going to get some hose via a work supplier to make up a longer filler.

                Most embarressing bit was going in to pay for 22p of petrol ......20p worth of which was running across the garage forecourt
