Escalade fuel filling problem So another person's 2004 escalade developed a problem after a while and wow is it annoying. When you fill gas, the pump clicks to tell your tank is full after anywhere from $0.05 to $3.50 worth of gas despite how much gas there really is in the truck. So pumping a full tank is very very annoying because it continously says its full. We had the piping and all the stuff between the gas tank and the gas cap checked by a shop and nothing was wrong. Next step would be to have the gas tank taken down and see if there is a problem with that...right? Any suggestions? |
You might have a blocked drainage pipe.. there is a pipe that bypasses the tank so extra fuel will flow out of the car. It might caused some funny pressure situations if it is blocked. |

I wonder if its the air pressure in the gas pipe that triggers the gas pump or is it something else? |
I have had this problem with my car aswell...the fix would be to pull the pump out a cm or so..and continue filling. |

I have this problem occasionally with my Envoy, I rotate the pump nozzle 90deg which usually solves it. |
