These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

3 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I have a 2001 996 (911 Carrera) non turbo car. I bought the car at auction and I have no history on it. It has 175,000 miles and runs and drives great. Everything works except I cant put gas in. I have replaced the fuel cap, fuel fill vent valve, and purge valve. All either OE or Pelican parts. Still spits fuel back out filler neck after pumping a few seconds. I Tried disconnecting the 2 large tubes from the charcoal canister and the problem persists. I tried disconnecting the 2 small rubes from the fuel vent valve and I could get gas in but the pump shuts off every couple of seconds. I can pour gas from a can slowly and I can get fuel in the tank. I know its a venting issue but cant resolve it. Any help is appreciated. I need to get it fixed and pass emission test so that I can sell it. Thanks David

POST 2Original post

This is also caused by the fuel lines in the tank. One will get out of position and foul the "anti fuel surge" flapper at the bottom of the fuel feed neck. There is a TSB but I couldn't find it. It consists of: 1 Pull the fuel pump (access under the battery on C2) 2. tie wrap the fuel line out of the way against the pump assy. 3. reassemble Found it TSB 911 (996) 5/99 2015 Fuel Tank Hose Modification August 12, 1999 If you are a member of Renntech, http://www.renntech.org/forums/tsbs/carrera/ , it is listed in Under DIY tools in Porsche TSBs
