Refueling is difficult

JFC: Some of these rude replies... WTF?!?

This is a common fueling problem with the Mustang for literally decades. My 06 would click off while fueling if the nozzle pressure is too high. every station is different, and pressure can differ at every pump.

Holding the nozzle upside down works because I believe it leaves a gap which allows back pressure to escape.

2004-2006 Pontiac GTOs have the same problem. One solution mentioned here was turning the nozzle around so it's sideways or upside down. Mine will click off the nozzle 1-2 gallons short, so I'll just keep pumping the nozzle for a minute or so. I reset the trip computer (which also resets the amount of fuel used) every time I fill up, so I know about how much I can pump in.

Could be wrong. But the stop happens at the pump side of the equation. Car is the tank. Class dismissed.
