<div>You must not be in CA (or other state with the vapor recovery gas pumps).</div>
<div>All 13 gallons take forever for me, so I never try to go more than 9 or so.</div>
<div>Old cars don't have the on-board carbon canister system that is needed for the new pumps.</div>
<div>So there is nothing you can do.</div>
<div>When the nozzle is fully inserted and gas pumped in the pressure rises and the pump shuts</div>
<div>off, always spilling gas down the side and onto the ground. </div>
<div>I have to hold the nozzle crooked so the bellows doesn't fully seat and just barely open the</div>
<div>trigger, takes forever.</div>
<div>Some guys hold the nozzle upside down (vertical) and it works better. I just tried this again</div>
<div>and it did seem to work better than years ago when I last tried it.</div>

<div dir="ltr">I have a ongoing issue, more of testing my patience, in that it takes me at least 5 minutes to completely fill my gas tanks. It takes the first 8-9 gallons just fine but the last 3-4 takes forever. I must squeak in .1-.2 gallons at a time, meaning I must wait 10-15 seconds for the gas to settle in the tanks before adding more.</div>
<div dir="ltr"> </div>
<div dir="ltr">The gas tank vent hose is in the correct location, I believe. No gas fumes in trunk. Gas tank sending unit and gauge are pretty accurate. When my patience holds and I get the tanks full, gauge shows 11.75 to 12 gallons on the gauge.</div>
<div dir="ltr"> </div>
<div dir="ltr">Any ideas or suggestions as to why this might be happening and potential fix would be appreciated.</div>
