[QUOTE="Richard L, post: 965489, member: 52972"] Probably not and evap canister problem. Some Sport Trac's are very hard to fill. You have to hold the nozzle and drickle the gas in very slowly after the pump shuts off. The fact that it only shows 3/4 tank may be more of a problem with the accuracy of your gas gauge. Also, different gas pumps trigger the shut off sooner than others. I have gone to stations where you could never run the pump at full blast as it would immediately shut off...so much of the problem is in the variations of the pump nozzle. Try different gas stations or different pumps. It is not recommended that you over fill your tank since that can damage the evap canister, but I did it when I wanted to get an accurate MPG reading. I think Ford only recommend that you fill the tank until the pump automatically shuts off twice as a normal fillup. ...Rich [/QUOTE]
