How do you fill up the gas tank?

Whichever method you choose to do, be sure to use diesel. It's good for an easy +50 whp, and eliminates the dreaded fuel starve.

Thus the problem with diesel is the nozzle is too big. I guess I could use a torch to cut out some metal around the fill hole. Maybe I'll do a write-up

That is completely unnecessary, you just stand approximately 5 feet and 2 inches from the tank hole and release. You better hope you have great aim.

Everyone knows you have to use the funnel you use for oil changes.

You know they make stuff for the nozzle for it to slip in easier. It's called Nozzle-eze. It's like anal-eze.
