Consumer Description
WHEN TRYING TO FUEL MY VEHICLE AT GAS PUMP, GAS BEGAN SPEWING AND GURGLING FROM THE TANK. I COULD GET NO MORE THAN AROUND A GALLON IN THE TANK WITHOUT IT SPEWING GAS BACK OUT ALL OVER MY TRUCK AND THE GROUND. I TRIED PUMPING SLOWER, PULLING NOZZLE IN AND OUT OF TANK, AND WAITING A WHILE. I HAD NO LUCK. I SUBSEQUENTLY TRIED AGAIN TWO MORE TIMES A WEEK APART AND STILL CAN'T GET GASOLINE INTO MY VEHICLE WITHOUT IT SPEWING OUT. UPON REVIEWING THIS PROBLEM ONLINE I FOUND A TERM USED FOR THIS PROBLEM. "SPITBACK." I ALSO FOUND THAT MANY CHRYSLER VEHICLES HAVE HAD THIS PROBLEM. ALSO, IT WOULD APPEAR THAT IF IT'S A CERTAIN ISSUE, THE ENTIRE TANK MAY NEED TO BE REPLACED FOR A SIMPLE LITTLE VALVE WHICH IS INACCESSIBLE OTHERWISE. *TR
