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.

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

POST 2Original post

Haven't had this problem first hand... but I assume you are not having luck at a gas station. Maybe use a portable container? Like 5 gallons at a time? Good luck.

POST 3Original post

Fuel tank issue is something very problematic for a Porsche 996 user. You have to go through the details for this problem. I hope this video might help you to have some idea at least. How to Replace a Fuel Tank Sending Unit on a 82 Porsche 911 - YouTube

POST 4Original post

1) Fuse E6 that controls the filler tube flap is blown 2) The tubes on the fuel pump can block the flap from opening (the TSB "Fuel Tank Hose Modification 5/99 2015" addresses this.) some info here. Car Won't Take Gas - Revisited - Rennlist Discussion Forums
