WHEN ADDING FUEL TO THE VEHICLE( FILL UP TIME), THE AUTO SHUT OFF CONTINUALLY "CLICKS" ITSELF OFF AND SPILLS FUEL. THIS CONDITION EXISTS ON AN EMPTY OR PARTIALLY FILLED TANK. I HAVE OWNED SAID VEHICLE SINCE NEW. PROBLEM DIDN'T BEGIN UNTIL ADAPTATION OF VAPOR RECOVERY DEVICES ADDED TO THE GAS STATION PUMPS. IT NOW TAKES APPROXIMATELY 15 MINUTES OF FRUSTRATION TO FILL THIS VEH. WITH THE 16 GALLONS REQUIRED TO FILL IT. ALSO RESULTS IN A SPILL EVERY SINGLE TIME. I BELONG TO AN ORGANIZATION DEDICATED TO THIS PARTICULAR MAKE AND MODEL OF VEHICLE, AND IT HAPPENS VERY OFTEN. *TR
SEVERITY DEPENDS ON GAS PUMP AND STATION. VEHICLE REFUSES TO LET FUEL FLOW, AND CLICKS OFF CONSTANTLY THROUGHOUT THE PROCESS OF FILLING THE CAR WITH FUEL. WHEN FUEL DOES FLOW, IT SPILLS OUT THE SIDE OF THE CAR WHEN FILLING IS COMPLETE RATHER THAN CLICKING OFF SAFELY. HAPPENS EVERY TIME. *TR
2000 JEEP WRANGLER SPORT. GAS OVERFILLS AND CAUSES A GAS SPILL OF 6-8 OZ OF GAS, EVERY TIME I FILL UP. *TR
