Then the truck started to run rough and black smoke came out the tailpipe and then it stalled ?(yes I had it running as I was pumping gas)
It started back up a moment later and alls fine ,I saw a hose next to the office and hosed it down good.I also went inside to tell the guy so he could clean it up and he gave me a look because he had to get off his a$$.I wasnt in the mood to confront him about the couple of gallons I lost ,I was more concerned about hosing down the rig.
If he was pumping and it happened I would of had a $hit fit.

It must have backflowed into vent tube ,also it took a moment to settle down the fill tube.

This had never happend to me even if I wedge something in there, good thing no one was smoking
This has got to be a crime--don't tell me you yanks let idiots blow up gas stations. Why do you think you have to wedge something in handle-cause its stupid illegal and a crime.You should go to JAIL for stupidity if nothing else. Why do you think there are signs everywhere to shut off while refueling. Cause you'll blow yourself up who nobody gives a **** about {you should have died long ago according to the Darwin awards]but everybody else up as well. Every day I'm surprised at the new depths of stupidity that are discovered. The Rebel
