Okay, I've read where the fuel overflows http://nissanmurano.org/forums/showthread.php?threadid=1052 but thrice now I've had the problem where the the pump's automatic fuel shutoff kicked in too early.
Last night it was on a pump with the vapor recovery nozzle with integral remove-shutoff (you know, where the vapor recovery...erm.."foreskin" needs to be pulled up before you can start fueling).
I only put in about a gallon and it clicked stop. Pulling the lever again didn't work. Removing the nozzle and putting it back in didn't work. Pushing the nozzle all the way in didn't work. Pulling the nozzle part way out (without kicking the removal cutoff) worked slightly- say for about a pint of gas. And rotating the nozzle ninety degrees actually worked for about seven gallons at a time- maybe I got tired of holding the thing rotated and let it drift back.
I guess this could be related to the ORVR mentioned in the above thread or even the pump itself, though it has happened at more than one pump and hasn't happened for me at all before on different cars and motorcycles, even at the same station (can't say it was the same pump- damn high octane requirement).
No, I'm just wondering if anyone else here has had the same problem or knows more about it. Anyone?
