gas filler splash back.

I've been filling my TJ on the first click since December of '96. Any faster and the nozzle kicks off.

I had that problem with my '99 TJ. I was so glad to sell that one off and get my '06 TJ unlimited. And now it starts this crap.

Can you check to make sure that the vent tubes are not blocked in some way?

Seems like it would be a whole lot cheaper than replacing the whole tank.

Splashback can also be caused by the gas station pumps either not shutting off properly or having too high a flow rate.

had more than one pump barf all over my shoes.

I had to do that with my '99 TJ. I was glad to be rid of that problem when I traded it in, but now this is worse.

I have looked at the vent tubes and all looks OK. No kinks in the rubber parts, connections to the tank fittings seem ok too.

I thought that too at first, but it happens when using pumps that didn't do it before.

Did they (recently ?) change to vapor recovery hoses/nozzels? I've found that to be a problem at some MA stations, and the NH ones I use never give me a problem.

Nope. Same pumps and hoses.
