WTF...! GAS
#21
I dont know what happens or why, but if my key is on, I have fewer problems filling it. I had never paid attention to it until I read this thread, but when it kicks the pump off, I turn the key on while the guy fills the car so I can see how full it is, and it doesn't shut off again.

Someone mentioned "fuel recovery mode" for the guage, what is that? I have not noticed anything different at all except my car takes gas easier.

There's a few TSB's plus a whole lot of threads. But the TSB "fix" doesn't really fix it. It has to do with the saddle type tanks. But don't fret because you're not alone.

There are a few work-arounds that work and in various combinations:
- Slow down fuel delivery as slow as possible, then speed up to find where it begins to kick off.
- Pull the pump nozzle out of the filler tube about half-way
- turn the pump handle 45, 90 sometimes even 180 degrees
- different pumps have different sensitivities. Find a pump that isn't so persnickity.
- Stand on your head and spit nickles

Before O Riley sidetracked us, this caught my attention. Since then I have started paying attention to this everytime I fill the car up and have not had any problems. If I dont have the key on, then my car is a PITA to fill up.
