Yeah, I brought this up before too, and end result is, when you know it's getting close to full, ease off on the throttle, and DO NOT try to top of when it clicks off: Here is a link to my previous item: https://mustangforums.com/fb.asp?m=742801

Same here, i set the trigger on the pump so I dont have to hold it. When it stops, dont try to top off.

most gas stations have warnings posted on the oumps NOT to top off, but its insanly close to the top when it shuts off.... i imagine when u pull away gas must slosh out the overflow.
