Fuel issue
Hello all,
My main issue is when I get gas I can only pump about 5-10 dollars worth and it clicks as if it were full even though I know it's not. The gas will back up and overflow out of the entry point. WTF is going on. |
Sounds like maybe the vent hose is clogged in some way I'd start with that
|
ya I've seen that before - try drawing the fuel nozzle out about half-way when filling - if that doesn't work then twist the handle almost upside down to about the 2 o'clock position - sounds stupid as f**K i know but some days thats the only way i can get the gas into the tank
I THINK it has to do with the 'anti-siphon' feature in the filler pipe - basically picture a ping pong ball that sits in a cradle inside the filler pipe - the idea is that gas will flow around the ball but someone trying to thread a hose down into your tank to steal your gas can't get it in. I've been fixing up a Jimmy for the wife and I HOPE tearing that ball out of that pipe will fix the 'fill' issue I've been having - going to be a couple weeks before I know tho - doing bodywork now :S |
