Trouble Fueling
I did a search but could not find anything on this subject. While filling up my 99TL the auto shut off on the gas pump nozzle keeps clicking off. This started about six months ago but not at all gas stations. About the same time this started I got a CEL for a "Evap Canister Leak". Not sure these are related but trying to fill the tank up with this happens is almost impossible. Any suggestions of where to start?

my friend had a similar prob on his car.
when the gas goes in the tank, the air thats in there needs to come out. there is a separate pipe and that gets clogged sometimes, rust or what-have-you. look at that. its a matter of pressure.

Thanks. I will look at that as soon as I can. I thought it might be related to the Evap Canister Leak CEL I am getting. I'll trace the pipes and hoses to see if any are plugged. Maybe I can fix two problems.
