has anyone ever had problems with filling their car up with gas, i had under a half a tank last night so i stopped to fill it up, while doing so it stoped atleast four times, at like 3, 4, 8 and then at 13, well 13 was 6 gallons so i thought that it was full, i get in the car and its only a little about 3/4 a tank, has this ever happened to anyone else, or did i just have a bad pump

 

It was probably just the pump. I have had that happen to me a few times. I usually just move to another pump when it happens.

 

i thought that there was a issue with this that had a tsb, or something, but i didnt want to look like a dumb ass if it was just the pump

 

Used to work in a gas station, what happened is you actually had the nozzle in too far. If it does it again, pull it out just a little bit and try again. There is a sensor in the nozzle, and if you place it wrong, it will cut the pump.

 

that is what i did it was almost halfway out and it still didnt work

 

Ok, sorry wasn't clear on that. Those sensors do go bad sometimes though. Just try a different pump, and let the station know so they can get it fixed.

 

i have that happen to all the time i just pump the gas slow and usually do not have problem

 

alright thanks for the help

 

Nothing wrong, happens when you pump fast, when it does it just squeeze the handel again.

 

there is definately a TSB on this. it's something with the vent tube for the filler hose

 

i thought that there was but i filled up today at the same place different pump and it worked fine for now
