Filling tank without holding nozzle

[Deleted member 12951]

Most of the time a premature shut off is the nozzle

Yep, Hate when nozzle goes off prematurely

My first vehicle without a gas cap, and I have to hold the filler to prevent it from shutting off. Is there a trick to this? 36 gallons on slow ass CA pumps is annoying.

When you leave America, things don’t always go to plan...

This appears to be a CA thing.

I'm in CA and rarely have an issue. Every once in a while I've had it shut off before being full, but it's certainly not an issue on every fill up.

There's an diagram from Ford of nozzle tips that work with the capless set up and those that don't work well (cause shut off)

I couldn't find a link but I should have it at work. I'll see what I can dig up

I don't have to hold mine ever, so it has nothing to do with the capless system.

But I don't live in Kalifornia, thank God.

Yeah, they kick back on some pumps and stop. It seems like the interaction between the vapor recovery system and Cap less design. Annoying.

zero problems in commiefornia with my gen 1 capless system
