My daughter reports to me that when she attempts to fill the gas tank it shuts off after about 3-5 gallons. She then can not get it to take more. Believe me, the tank is less than a quarter full when she goes to refill. If she drives a little bit, she then can add another 3-5 gallons before the refueling stops.
Does this sound like a Fuel Vapor Purge Valve issue? When the car was used by my wife, she reported this same symptom. Every time I filled the car I haven't had any troubles. We have owned the car eight years and it is a low-mileage vehicle.
Car details: 2004 Explorer XLT 4X4, 4.0L engine, 88,000 miles.
