I'd filled the tank and it took over an hour to drain it...
On dismantling the tap I found that the inner plate with the tree holes in was rotated partially occluding the holes. Turned it round, reassembled and it flows 500ml in 49s - just goes to show how little it takes to cut the fuel flow to next to nothing

Will do some more miles and see what happens.

I had this problem with a FF tap. The rubber disc was fine until it was subjected to petrol. I made a new disc from some neoprene sheet, and it's worked fine ever since.
