Gas fill up problem

[TacomaLG]

I insert the nozzle and can pump almost to full tank. The nozzle clicks and stops before filling up the tank completely. After that, it clicks off every 2 seconds or so. I tried every position to place the nozzle but no luck. This has happened in other gas stations as well. If anyone has any idea what could cause this, it will help me very much.

Thank you

So it is stopped before it actually says full on the gauge in the truck? That is what you are basing full off of, correct?

Correct

It's those damn nozzels in CA. They have that stupid thing to prevent vapors. Ever filled up out of state?

I haven't yet. I've only filled up in Cali.

Take the nozzle out partially. I think it's to prevent possible back flow, and is not limited to California. May just be more sensitive there.

That's what I'm doing for now, but I was hoping there's a fix for it.

I think it's a safety feature and helps prevent fires. The fumes are what's the most flammable.
