There is a filling station here in Sheffield (BP station at Woodseats)
that will not fill a Type 44 without a struggle. This is the only one
I'm aware of with the problem, and it affects all pumps.
I've been idly speculating for half a year or so as to whether this is
because all pumps are adjusted the same, or whether the cut-offs in the
pumps are all supplied with whatever they use (vacuum?) from a central
mis-set source.
Is your problem related to multiple filling stations or just the one?
