i wouldnt call you a rebel.......


but you are getting air bubbles into the tank when fueling

 

Job done Androoos and all, This site has done it's job in convincing me that I have been in error in my actions. I asked a question and you guys have replied fittingly after review and I have listened. That is what these news groups are all about.
>>>No hate guys, OK?<<< ...We live a learn!

 

The Rebel comment was in jest and meant to add levity to the post.

 

Yes, and thank you for listening to us. We're totally cool. No hate.

The reasoning behind my tirades is because too many times people come onto these boards, make a similar post or convey similar ideas or reasoning, and they absolutely refuse to back down, admit they were wrong, or apologize, no matter how stupid they were made to sound or feel. I'm glad you're the exception to that. If only everyone were that way. But, also in your defense, EvoM post-ers can be a tough crowd sometimes.

And, now when you shut your car off, and after refueling, if you start it up and THEN it sputters, then you may have to get it looked at. But it's most likely a loss of vacuum that's making the fuel pump work harder, since it was still pumping and didn't have the gas cap to form a seal from. Keep us updated.

CHEERS

 

Fuel tank is pressurized and needs the cap on to idle correctly. Probably not a lot of pressure but it is there. Many don't turn their cars off due the turbo cooldown period.

 

Thanks Androos! ...Yes, a tough crowd indeed.

What a waste of bandwidth.

The originator of this thread should be subject to bukkake.

 

if I was having fun on the turnpike and I pull into a truck stop I'll leave the car running while I fill up, just like I did today. no big deal, it's not gonna do any harm to your engine or the environment, lol. But 80% of the time I just drive normal for a few miles before I need to get gas and shut the car off at the pump.
