| Fuel filler problem: the vehicle (1999 nissan altima) will only take a small amount of fuel at a time (length of filler neck) and then pump shuts off as the fuel overflows and drains into tank. it is also impossible to completely fill the tank; it only wants to holds approximately 3/4 of its capacity. this is not only annoying, but a safety concern because fuel spills onto the vehicle and ground since there is no fuel filler butterfly valve at the top of the neck.*ak | |||
