Filling Up With Gas Issues

Hi, I was at the gas pump today and the pump clicked off at half a tank.... I went to another station and the same thing happened... Any ideas? Really annoying.

Same thing

I have had the same problem. Even pulling the nozzle out some will only help a little before it does the "full click" again. Any input would be great!

Some pumps do this too me it's pretty annoying, if you hold the filler upside down it will fill no problem but it will not stop so it will over flow.

It has something to do with the anti theft in the tank

I only had this problem once when I first bought my G and it hasn't happened since. Knock on wood. I just ran out w/e got into my tank and it's been smooth sailing ever since.

I go to the same gas station 80% of the time. I've had my G for two months now and this never happened to me until today... I just went to fill now and it wouldn't even let me fill. Every time I press it clicked... I got so frustrated and only filled up $6, clicking all the way there... and left. I was going to post my problem until I saw this thread....... WTH?!?!

Dude that's freaking weird! What is even weirder is... I pulled up to the pump just a second ago and it took a full tank. But the person in front of me only bought $6 of gas according to the pump. When I read that I thought it was you! But then I saw you don't live any where near Texas!

Hahah yea!

I'm wondering if it's the outside heat here in Texas causing it to act up?
