Consumer Description

AFTER PUMPING FUEL INTO MY NITRO ABOUT 1\2 -1 GALLON OF GAS COMES SPRAYING OUT OF THE FILLER PIPE. THIS IS MOST LIKELY CAUSED BY A VALVE IN THE GAS TANK THAT IS THERE TO PREVENT AN EXPLOSION IN THE EVENT OF A ROLLOVER ACCIDENT. THE VALVE IS DEFECTIVE, AND THUS THE GAS SPILLS OUT, AND MY CAR COULD POSSIBLY EXPLODE IN A ROLLOVER ACCIDENT. *TR
