Abstract: A method for a vehicle, comprising: indicating a true fill level of a fuel tank based on a fuel vapor canister temperature profile during a refueling event. In this way, a quantity fuel dispensed over the maximum fill level of the fuel tank may be accounted for, regardless of the fuel level sensor reading.

Abstract: A fuel tank having an interior space defined by a wall, a fill tube to admit fuel into the interior space, and a vent to discharge air and vapor from the interior space as the fuel is admitted. The vent includes a vent tube extending through the wall and downward into the interior space, and having a non-circular opening. In this manner ejection of fuel from the fill tube can be prevented reliably under a wide range of refueling conditions, and without imparting excessive length to the vent tube.

Abstract: While assembling driveline components for a motor vehicle, one driveline component is rotated relative to another driveline component until the driveline components are properly aligned. This rotation is accomplished through the use of a fastener, which also helps secure the driveline components to one another. The fastener is preferably a lock nut, and, more specifically, a prevailing torque nut. In one embodiment, the fastener requires at least 20 Nm of force in order to be run down on one of the driveline components. Running down and tightening the fastener occurs during the final assembly step of the driveline components relative to one another. The alignment of the driveline components preferably takes place between splines of one driveline component and splines of the other driveline component.
