Well I've done a search to see if anyone else has had a similar problem, but found nothing.  When I fill up the tank, if I fill too fast, the gas will overflow from the tank.  Not because it is full, but it is getting stopped up somehow from being filled too fast.  This happens nearly everytime.  How would I correct this problem, or is this just something I need to deal with?

Thanks in advance.

I had a loaner before they delivered my truck and every single time this truck overflowed, the dealer tried to blame it on the gas pump.  But it happened at five different stations, all of which I have used with previous vehicles.

So far I haven't had it happen on my truck, I let it sit for a few moments and then fill on the slowest possible selection.

When I had the loaner, I never filled it.  I only put a few dollars in at a time, I thought my truck would be ready for me sooner then it was...

And it happened almost as soon as I started to put gas in it.

Well there was no kink to be found and no ubstruction, he thinks that it has something to do with a problem the 350Zs had in that a regulator will not let enough air out as the tank is filled, causing the gas to get backed up when filled too fast.  He is supose to call me later today to let me know what they are planning on doing.  If it's what he thinks, the part will be overnighted in, and I can have the truck fixed tomarrow.

I also must say that Nissan has got to have the best customer service I have ever seen.  Or maybe it's just here in Oklahoma.
