is there a trick to gassing up a diablo?

Yes. With patience and angle slightly side ways

 

...............................................................Yup, thats the way to do it .

 

Although it may be too late to do anything about this, there was some fix on my '98 SV I had done in '98 or '99 which allowed one to fill the car up without the constant shutting off the gas pump.

 

It's the nature of the beast , may want to grab a folding chair, i noticed some pumps work better then others, on my roadster it works best placing the nozzle at eight o'clock position and gradually squeezing the lever to no more then 3/4 of the way.

 

I don't know if this link will show up, because I wrote it on another Lambo forum, but go to:

I put the nozzle in upside down, then hold it sideways and push down.

Depends on the gas station nozzle, of course.

I never top it off because it tends to spill a bit over.
