So I am filling up my g/f's car the other day and the gun clicks just before 3/4 tank... I try to put more and it wont let me, I go to a different pump and it takes about seven more sents and clicks... Had to leave with only 3/4 tank...

Today I go to fill up my Si and it does the same damn thing at a totally different gas station! This a known issue?

You going by the fuel gauge in the car or the gallon counter on the pump?

 

The gauge on the car...

Obviously your gauge is fucked up then.

Pull the gas nozzle out about half way..sounds dum but it will do the trick

nozzles shut off when a little sensor in the tip of it gets hit with the fuel. sometimes there will be a little build up while it goes down the shaft. thats why pulling it out a little bit works. also try to turn the nozzle sideways when your pumping. i had a car that wouldnt take gas unless i held the pump sideways. Although that many times is wierd
