First time it happened to me and I've used this pump before. Anyone ever have this issue/problem?

WOW... It happens to me at most Shell station as well, but it seems though BP fills up fine. I've only filled up with BP the other day as I wasn't too sure about BP fuels, they seem to be alright... I have always only used Shell for my 350GT/G35 Coupe, as a trusty R&D fuel and back with motorsport involvement. Mobil would have been an option, but there are no more Mobil stations in Oz anymore. Reading quickly through the posts, it seems that it's a temperamental problem? Why does it happen more so with Shell station pumps than others?

Is there a recall on this? I was trying to fill up my tank and all of sudden gas pours out and spills on my pants smh. And when I start up my car the gauge only says 3/4

Two problems happened, yes one is the evaporative vent clog that the letter went out for, check out this thread:

The second problem was the overflow valve on the fueling nozzle didn't trip, you should inform the station clerk which pump nozzle it was so he can get it fixed.

You should ALWAYS stand off to the side when filling your vehicle, if you need to turn it off from an overflow condition you can do it at the pump itself by depressing the switch plate where you put the nozzle when finished, I learned the hard way too...

I think it can affect all years if G35's but I'm not totally sure.

I'm not sure if it was the pumps or what but pumping gas for me is not a pain anymore....*knock on wood*

This worked for me as well! I was going crazy trying to figure this out.
