Gas filling problems

[sinned52]

I have a 2004 Sport Trac with 92000 miles on it. I have been having problems when filling the gas tank. It always clicks off after a gallon or two have been dispensed. I though it was the pump,so I moved to a different pump. No luck. Even tried a different gas station. Still the same. Any ideas?

the pumps usually shut off when gas touches the nossle so that it is underwater (gas), i noticed this when i was filling a plastic gas tank and it kept shutting off because it was too far into the tank, so my guess would be that the pumps are pouring gas too fast for your truck, something is probably blocking flow somewhere between tank and filler hole, maybe a kinked tube or something getting lodged in it restricting flow, try only pulling teh handl eof the pump nosle a little bit so it pours slower and see if that helps, if it does check for blockage in the tube between gas tank and body.

figure out the problem? always good to give feedback after you get the problem fixed so people with teh same problem in the future can see what worked and what didnt.
