pmping gas in my s14 takes FOREVER...HELP!

[SixSquared]

My trans am does it on some pumps. I think it's just the angle of the tube. Gas nozzles sense when the tip is being splashed on or when too much pressure builds. If this helps at all, maybe you can find a happy medium angle?



I also noticed that pumps in ATL tend to pump a LOT faster than pumps out here in Athens. Makes sense, since there's way more cars in ATL, but that's where I usually run into probs with the trans am, since it's just going too fast lol. If you can't find a good angle, just gotta sit there and hold the trigger a little loosely so the gas goes slower. Sucks, but ya gotta get gas in somehow lol.

thanks for the help guys....But i thought it might be the angle also but its not, and i always turn my car off and take the keys out of the switch and it kicks off even when i slllooowwwllllyyy pump the gas. IDK guys this has me stumped.....but like ya said i have to get gas some how, maybe i can figure it out. thanks guys.

almost all gas stations have 3/4hp pumps, but they will pump slow if the filters in the dispensors get clogged up.
