Not taking Gas

[Johnlipps]

Hey guys, so I’ve been on here a few times reading thread about not taking gas, well I have replaced the evap solenoid at the engine, and the canister solenoid and the charcoal canister and still will not take fuel. So I come here for suggestions what do I check next???? Before I still a rag in it and light it on fire. Lol. Thanks.

Why is it your car's fault and not the pump or gas station's fault?

Did you try parking downward on a slope and filling it?

Welcome to the forum but you have posted in the wrong section. Hopefully admin will change it but you give absolutely no vehicle info, so they will not know where to put it.

What is the year, make and model and engine size? Are you saying the individual parts have been replaced but none of the evap lines? Several stories on here about the lines having charcoal in them and can't even blow them out. Recent work before experiencing the problem? Recent tank drop? May have a kinked filler neck hose but again, no vehicle info to help figure it all out. Any CEL's?

Every station I go too, it does at everyone. I can take my fathers and 0 problems same model and year.

You probably have charcoal pellets in your lines and they can be all the way up to near the motor.

@soulsea Can you put this in the right forum for John please?

Yeah, you're right! I reckon it's not this one, guess we'll have to wait till he tells us what he's driving!

@Johnlipps post up your year, make, model, and engine size. Or better yet add it to your signature so it's always there.

Is the Check Engine ("money") light on? If the evap system can't vent, which is what this sounds like, many times there will be a Pxxxx code stored. Those can be read with the cheapest of scanners.
