Methods and systems are provided for a filler inlet of a fuel fill line of a motorized vehicle. In one example, a filler inlet includes a fuel/air separation chamber extending at an angle relative to an opening of the filler inlet, with the opening adapted to receive a fuel nozzle. Fuel may be guided from the fuel nozzle toward a curved wall of the fuel/air separation chamber by a flow guide, and the fuel may separate from entrained air within the fuel/air separation chamber.
