Its not a big issue, except for the amount of time i need to spend pumping gas to fill the tank.
But I am wondering why it does it, and if anyone else has the problem?

So when I am pumping gas (any gas station) I can only pull the trigger about half way, if i go any further you feel the trigger just fall (as if it were full) and wont pump any more. I dont get why it does it, ive pumped gas for several other cars, and i can just squeeze the trigger and its fine. But mine I need to wait like 5 mins filling up! ugh

Wasnt sure if that meant i had like a leak in the filler neck or something? My tank doesnt leak that i see anyhow, nothing obvious maybe a little seeping?

anyway thanks for any info, and does anyone have this problem?

What?I dont have this problem... From what ive read gas pumps have some kind of vacuum on the tip and when gas gets sucked into it, the pump shuts off...I usually set that little metal clip on full speed, then explain to the gas station badass that my car is in fact not an integra...or i go wash the windshield or something..
