What? I suppose you have to pay for your gas before you can pump. Ya know I think the only reason they make stupid laws like this is because there's to many retards out running rampant.

No big deal, as long as someone gets there problem fixed.

That's pretty much the reason for ALL laws. If everybody exercised enough integrity and personal responsibility, we wouldn't need laws, cops, judges or jails.

I have this problem also especially at shell stations.


THE FIX: hold the nozzle sideways with the hose part pointing towards the back of the jeep. Works every time for me.

He's going to replace the evap solenoid this weekend. Hopefully that will fix the problem.

You think if a guy sticks a tube down the filler tube and tried to pump gas and if it works its a venting problem and if it doesn't work then its in the filler neck?

Had an old Dodge that would do this. Would stick it in all the way and it would go off. Just had to get used to putting it in part way to keep it from going off early.

Well the evap solenoid didn't help. My guess is the filler tube is retarded.
