Fuel filler restriction?

Under SVA there was a requirement for a restrictor in the fuel filler on a catalyst equipped vehicle so you couldn't (easily!) fill with leaded fuel - just been thro' the IVA manual & so far as I can see the requirement is no longer there (which would make sense as unleaded no longer available) can anyone confirm, or am I simply being blind?





I no longer run Furore Products or Furore Cars Ltd, but would still highly recommend them for Acewell dashes, projector headlights, dominator headlights, indicators, mirrors etc, best prices in the UK! Take a look at http://www.furoreproducts.co.uk/ or find more parts on Ebay, user names furoreltd & furoreproducts, discounts available for LCB users.
Don't forget Stainless Steel Braided brake hoses, made to your exact requirements in any of around 16 colours. http://shop.ebay.co.uk/furoreproducts/m.html?_dmd=1&_ipg=50&_sop=12&_rdc=1

Not been through the manual but I think it's still there along with the requirement for the cap to be tethered.

I can find the bit about tethered or locking cap, but can't see the bit about restriction!

Just rang VOSA to confirm it has been removed - apparently they worked out that as you can't buy leaded fuel anymore it was no longer necessary!
