Fuel flow

I have a 2023 Magnitude on the F600 chassis. When refueling it won't fill with nozzle fully open. I have to slowly trickle the fuel in or it will back flow and shut the pump off. Anyone have that experience and/or solutions?

This is an offroader trick and you won't like it.
Drill an extra vent hole in the filler neck.(with a non electric drill)

The problem is either a venting problem(my fix) or a kink in the filler line(replace filler hose)

Check hoses for kinks first.

Thor has a habit of making the black fill hose too long to cause a kink. I had to cut an inch off mine, works great filling up now.

2017 Thor Miramar 37.1

Good luck.

This is actually pretty easy to do. I cut off about 1.5" in about 10 minutes. Only loosed the clamps used a razor to cut around the hose then cut it down the middle and slid it further on.
