Fuel pump stops mid-fill

binnedoy · 05-31-2021, 07:23 AM

Does anybody have/had a problem filling the gas tank? The pump always shuts off after a few liters. I think it's the air not coming out of the tank.

Found this but I'm unsure if I should and where it is all situated:

I have this problem now. It all happened after the dealer had to drop my gas tank under warranty to fix another issue. Now if i try to pump at full speed the pump clicks off like 2/3 of the time and i have to restart it. I found a thread a while back that said its basically due to misalignment of the fill neck/tube that goes to the tank. I completely beleive that since i never had the issue until the dealer dropped my tank.

It turns out it was the dust filter on the vent pipe that was clogged PN: 16-13-7-438-487.

I have to turn the gas pump handle over sometime to fill up. It won't click off if you turn it over.
