'cos the bastards remove the little pin which it latches to. I reckon a suitable-sized pop rivet would fit, and what landy-owner doesn't have pop rivets?

never actually got to testing this theory, mind.

I'd be up for trying, however I once got shouted at for doing my usual LPG filling trick which involved parking in such a way as I can wedge a piece of wood between the 'on' button and the side of Grumble.

Don't try this at a staffed filling station, and even if you do, never just shout 'fill her up mate' whilst you're checking the oil...

Martyn

I think the FOTE may be here before Greenpeace!

Should I wear a short skirt and some hold ups do you think?

You could make a happy man very old...

(or something like that...)

Martyn

it does, unless they've removed the hook bit as well ..............

Bruce says he is thank you very much.

Is that lipstick on the dipstick, or the fill level?

I'll get me coat...

...long grey grubby one in pvc.

I think its some legal thing, they often leave then there on the deisel pumps, more especially on the HGV lanes, as you can take anything up to

1,500 litres. I used to carry a suitable sized wedge on the tank of the truck, fits any nozzle.

Easy to remember.....

Filler under the seat Dipstick on the seat ;-)

Thanks!
