Yesterday I took off the filler tube at the tank. I inspected the tube and it didn't appear to have any thin in there blocking the fuel. I put my finger inside the tank k through where the tube meets the tank. I felt some resistance, like a plastic with a spring. I couldn't fully push it so I tried to do that with a long screw driver. However it wouldn't change its position. It would appear to be pushing in and came right back to the initial position. There was a gap under it though so I suspect there's nothing wrong there. I'm so confused and don't know what else to do.

Wow. Good to hear. I got distracted talking taillights, but was going to mention the various little insects that build mud nests and cocoons in the orifices of metal machines.
Anything partially disassembled, or used parts, could get plugged...some running things w/ vents to atmosphere too. |

fuel station filler pump handle shutoff click nozzle gasoline slow fast spray
Did it click off in the attendant's hand when it gushed out? If not, there's something really wrong with the filling station pump.
(I find too much variability in pump behavior. Some click off at obvious short fills. Some have clogged filters or something and take minutes to fill. Some are obviously super pumpers and click off w/ a spritz of fuel out the filler neck. Some correctly click off w/ no drama and no gas burp when the tank is full.)

If attendant ignored first click shutoff, then he was an idiot.
