jmac0408 Posted November 16, 2019 Share Posted November 16, 2019 I'm having problems at the pump other than paying for the gas. The gas nozzle keeps clicking off way before the tank is full. This happens every time, no matter what station I'm at, position of car etc. Changing the position of the filler nozzle does not change anything. I looked for obstructions etc and everything looks new/undamaged. Anyone else experience this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
campingnut Posted November 16, 2019 Share Posted November 16, 2019 I have seen a plugged vapour canistor cause this problem as it when not let the air escape as you fill the tank Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still within the 3 year/36,000 Bumper to Bumper or 5 year/60,000 Powertrain Warranties? In addition to the advice campingnut offered...Does this occur at all pumps and all stations, or do you usually fill up at one particular station? If you haven't already, try other pumps at other stations and see if you still have the same issues. Let us know how you make out and good luck.

fordtech1 Posted November 16, 2019 Share Posted November 16, 2019 It sounds to be a venting issue. Like already mentioned, a plugged vapor canister. What year and mileage? It could be as simple as spider webs in vent hose to needing a fuel tank because the valve on top is defective. It really needs correct diag.

jmac0408 Posted November 17, 2019 Author Share Posted November 17, 2019 Hi bbf2530: Thanks for your response. The issue does, in fact, occur wherever or whenever I have recently tried to "gas up"/fill the tank. As mentioned, this issue has only arisen over the past two fill attempts!

lmhayes88 Posted July 21, 2020 Share Posted July 21, 2020 We had the same issue but it would click off every 5 seconds so filling up took 20 minutes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
retmustang Posted December 8, 2020 Share Posted December 8, 2020 (edited) I have a 2019 Edge. The first few times I filled it, I had trouble. My problem was 50 years of driving. Stick the gas hose nozzle into the tank filler pipe and either hold the lever to fill or set the catch to fill it and let it go. The Edge fuel pipe has a capless system. At my gas station, Costco - they installed a new type of nozzle. I found that I had to push the nozzle with more force into this capless filler pipe. If I didn't maintain the pressure, the flow would shut off. It's gotten easier. But, the first few times, I was swearing under my breath. It could be worse. One of my neighbors has a Chevy Bolt (electric vehicle). Another neighbor saw smoke coming from his garage. The Bolt owner and another neighbor put the fire out. But, he could have lost his house. Electric vehicles will have issues too. Edited December 8, 2020 by retmustang missing words Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
