My '77 911s has the filler on the drivers side, so did the 993. About a 22 gallon tank up front. My 914 you had to open the hood. Last edited by Sapphireho; 03-18-2019 at 11:21 AM. |

A lot of quasi science being applied to filler sides.
The side mostly just depends on the main market. RHD cars get it on the right. LHD cars get it on the left. It is supposed to be more practical for the people in the main market of the car. It really is as simple as that. Personally I liked the old days when it was hidden in the middle even if they were a pain in the ass.

I was really hoping OP would return and deliver 3 more walls of text.... and he did! I've come to respect and depend upon his automotive musings. I didn't know what to think about my car until he told me. I must join the Mazda forum now in order to keep up on his teachings.

In any case, really looking forward to be able to feel the crippling effect of the torque dip for myself. It could be hard work though, as the time spent with Corolla and Prius has probably dulled my sensitivity to car control cues beyond repair. Anybody in the GTA interested in getting together and have a Torque Dip Party? After that, we can hop on the Bloor east to DVP north on ramp and cause some accident in the uphill merge. I hope Tcoat can come and join us |
