Totally worthless for me, in fact even worse. I can't get my tank to accept fuel from truck nozzles at even the lowest detent in the holding mechanism. I have to stand there and hold the handle feeding in very slowly.

Yes, do crawl under and verify that both fill and vent line do not have a drip loop, but angle smoothly down from coach side to tank.
On our Safari, the vent line was 8" too long which formed a drip loop and materially slowed fill rate. Discovered this when the vent line developed a crack (leaked fuel when filling). Fixed it when I replaced the line with new diesel tolerant line.
Inexpensive and made a big difference.
