How can I tell when my gas tank is full?
Knowing the tank can’t possibly be full, I keep working on filling the tank, at a rate of less than a gallon per click, until 10-12 (possibly more) gallons later I see gas come out of the tube. (There’s no other way to work out when my tank’s full as I have no way of determining how much fuel is in the tank to begin with.)
Why is my gas tank not filling properly?
This causes the tank to not get filled properly and the inner hose can get caught in the fuel sender causing wrong readings. If you’d like to get this fixed, consider YourMechanic, as a certified technician can help you service your fuel filler neck and ensure that your fuel gauge functions normally. Good luck.

What happens when you refill your gas tank?
Q: When refilling gas tank, gas overflows before tank is full. Often times, as I’m pumping gas, the pump will shut off because the end of the nozzle touches gasoline. I then see gas flowing out of the tank, so I stop. I then get back into my car only to find my gas gauge reads half a tank.
What happens when you fill up the gas tank?
Thank you. When you fill your gas tank, a lot of fumes build up in the fuel tank and usually excess fumes come out of the fuel filled tube and out to atmosphere or into a recovery system in the fuel pump handle.

Why does the gas pump keep stopping when my tank isn’t?
If it is just one pump that keeps stopping while all others work fine, there are several possibilities. The shut-off mechanism is hypersensitive. It barely stays open, getting shut by the tiniest of perturbations. The pump delivers too fast, causing splashing in the filler neck or in the tank. The fuel is foamy.
