Petrol Clicking

[scarface]

Was trying to put petrol in this morn and the nozzle kept clicking off as if the tank was full, but it wasnt.

Anyone had that b4?

Yep, in my experience it normally means a dodgy fuel pump.

Did you tell them at the kisok also? (as they may be unaware of it).

 

[scarface]

Oh no i thought it was something to do with the car, will keep an eye on it. cheers

dont stick the nozzle in so far, or at a different angle.

You can try not squeezing it so hard. I've found some cars worse than others for this.

 

[paul.sessions]

yeah i agree usually dodgy fuel pumps do this

On my old 1.4 mk2 ibiza pumps ALWAYS used to do this to me, then again i only filled it up with regular petrol and now it never happens to me but then again now I use the super / vpower so i guess there not used as much
