1 year agoI had this problem with my last car and I’m certainly going to explain it poorly but here goes.
There’s a vent or pipe of sorts in or around where the fuel goes into your car and if it gets clogged vapors build up and cause the shutoff mechanism in the handle to trigger prematurely. Cleaning it out can help.
But I also just came across this saying it’s probably the pumps fault. So it’s probably best to disregard everything I’ve said. https://jalopnik.com/you-may-want-to-avoid-yosemite-national-park-right-now-1850592362
You can actually type the math into DDG and it will do it for you. Just search for “1.2+5.6+10” (I’m not sure how DDG handles the comma versus period but I would expect that it would adapt to your location)
