Anyone using this fuel tank on their truck? Do you have trouble with the high pressure nozzles in the commercial lanes at truck stops constantly kicking off?

Pickup trucks with OEM fuel tanks have same issue when using those trucker large high flow nozzles.

Unless the aftermarket tanks have large filler & vent tubes, should have same issue

What Mr Biscuit said, it isn't the S&B. Installing the S&B was a great idea although it ratchets up the fill-up pain now! If I filled up in LA I'd be looking at a $500 fill-up!

I have a Titan aftermarket in my truck, but I don't think it is any different than the S&B, or any other one as far as filling from the commercial lanes. I still have the same "problem" in filling as with the OEM, I just go slow, or the first notch on the handle.

What Wileykid said ^^^

Even the first notch on the truck lane pumps seems twice as fast as a regular nozzle in the regular lane. Even for a stock tank. It won't take long to spend the bucks even at a low setting.

Thanks all, This is my first diesel, and I'm sure I'll have many more questions for those in the know. The gentleman I bought it from wanted give me a full tank. So, we stopped in the commercial lane of a truck stop and topped it off. He did the pumping but I didn't notice any trouble with the high pressure nozzle filling the OE tank. So, I was thinking it was only an issue with the S&B
Thanks again for sharing your collective wisdom.
