If you mod the filler necks and vent you don't need patience, just use the big nozzles and run them wide open.

Here's more info (confusion) from a 96 Owners Manual:
Be sure to look at my next post for the footnotes. (Only allowed 3 pictures per post)

The Owners manual and repair manual do not agree. You get a 22 gallon front tank with a diesel/e4od only.

Mine seems to be 19/18. Thats what my book says, and it seems to be true at the pump.
Although I have at one pump put 21 gal in the front tank, and there already was some fuel in the tank when I started to pump. I have other reasons to think there is something fishy going on at that station though.

Next time you fill up at that station, stop pumping at 10.000 (or as close as you can get without going too far over) and check the dollar amount. If the gallons and total sale don't match, there's something fishy going on.

For example, when I filled up last time, diesel was $2.699/gallon. Ten gallons of diesel was $26.99 for the total sale amount.

There should also be an annual certification sticker on the pump.

The accuracy of the pump is not the only thing in question. Sometimes when I look at my receipt it will look like I bought regular gas and not diesel. It will have the current gas price/gal @ however many gallons and then the total. The first time I noticed this I thought I accidently put gas and not diesel in my tank.
