Gas tank issue solved?

[royb]

here's what I figured out. when I gas up with pumps that have the older spring type technology on the nozzle then it will shut off unless I turn the handle upside down. When I gas up with pumps that have no spring on the nozzle then no problems.

Haven't tried the upside-down trick yet, but where the pump has no outer hose (vapour hose?), I do not have any trouble fuelling.

Fingers crossed for the upside-down thing working for me - I might try it tonight. At least locally I can plan to fill when I pass a station with the nozzle-type I can use, but whenever I'm doing more than a grocery-run, it's a real pain in the glutes!

The nozzle half way in trick has worked for me at most stations. I haven't tried the upside down nozzle trick yet. Thanks for the tip.

Same problem here with the nozzles that have springs on the outside. The nozzles with no springs work fine.

I have not had any problem yet with mine, regardless of pump handle type
