My first BDR (687) did that and only had the 3/8 vent from the corner of the tank to fairly low in the fill tube. The tank had to be filled very slowly like you are descibing. My current car (1311) has that same 3/8 tube but connects in the fill tube several inches higher than my old car did. In addition I also have a smaller vent at the top of the tank off of the center plate where the internal fuel pump is mounted. With these 2 vents and the higher location in the fill tube I have no problem at all fueling. Hope that helps. Steve
