J398B_197806 FUEL TANK FILLER CONDITIONS—PASSENGER CAR MULTI-PURPOSE PASSENGER VEHICLES, AND LIGHT DUTY TRUCKS

This recommended practice defines conditions for evaluating the compatibility of vehicle fuel tanks and filler pipes with fuel dispensing facilities equipped with standard (non-vapor recovery) configuration as well as vapor recovery type nozzles. It applies to passenger cars, multipurpose passenger vehicles, and light-duty trucks (10 000 lb (4536 kg) maximum gvw), (Ref. J1100a, Motor Vehicle Dimensions (September, 1975)). It includes a technique for filling a tank full that can be used to establish a reference condition for other tests which require starting with a full tank.
