Hi folks
Hoping our illustrious group may be able to help/advise
So, when I fill up Bessy, she is the early 230 SL with spare tyre mounted vertically, there is a strong smell of fuel.
I was told that this is ‘normal’ if you fill them up?!? Find this somewhat hard to believe as I’m sure I would have read that somewhere. It has therefore been advised only to fill her 3/4 full otherwise fumes comes out of the breather valve?
Dos this sound right?
I don’t really only want 3/4 tank to be considered as the maximum to fill the tank, considering the tank is fairly small anyway
Can anyone advise what needs to be looked at or is there something else that can be done to overcome this issue?
Thanks in advance
Katie
