therefore calls for no manual interevention.

engine when it is hot. Never fill the tank above the bottom
of the filler tube - T - otherwise it may overflow when the
fuel warms up and expands.
Immediately wipe off spilled fuel with a soft cloth, since
fuel may deteriorate painted surfaces or plastic parts

of 95.
