Another new guy question so thanks in advance for any help. I filled my 61 M300 with gas for the first time the other day and it took a very long time to put in 10 gallons. Yeah, I know I've had it for about a month and should be driving it more, but I continue to work on some items.
I did a search on the site and couldn't find anything. I realize the filler neck and route to the tank is almost more horizontal than vertical so I will experience some back pressure, but didn't expect quite as much. The tank has been sandblasted, the filler neck and pipe are new. Should it take a such a long time to fill the tank? I have no reference except owning in the past a 1949 Packard, 1961 International Scout, 1967 International Harvester pickup and 1961 Corvette and none of them took this long to fuel.
