Is it at all gas stations it does this? I know there's one station by me with crappy old pumps and it did this. That's why I don't go to that station any more.

It's a very common problem and VERY frustrating!!

It's easier to just fill it half full, instead of fighting with it...

Some of the older pumps at gas stations seem to make a bad seal on my mustang. Its hit or miss for me on whether it thinks its full or not. I just reseat it a few times and it gets going.

Mine has the same problem. Rotating the pump nozzle 90 deg. to the side works for me.

Don't bother with the fix stated in the TSB. More than half the people that had it done said it didn't help.
