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.

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

0 evidence records excluded for query context · 1 excluded by outcome qualification · 0 adjusted by outcome qualification.

1 acknowledgements have no verified action link; they do not establish a repair result.

POST 1Original post

Hello forum, I am having issues filling my fuel tank. I have searched the web to no avail. I have rotated nozzle and filled at a slow rate. Still blows gas back at me and clicks off within a few seconds. There is not a fuel vapor recovery hood on the pump nozzles here in South Carolina that requires the small extension collar offered for sale. The parts houses are baffled, other forums have no guidance. Surely someone has encountered this issue and found a solution? Anyone.......anyone? Thanks

POST 2Original post

That's very odd. I can think of two possibilities: 1) a kink or other obstruction in the hose between the filler neck and the tank. 2) something going on with the fuel injection system such that the tank is building up pressure. Interested to hear what you might find.

POST 3Original post

Never had mine spit fuel at me. Never had much luck with turning the nozzle upside down either. Lifting the nozzle up by the hose end while it's inserted all the way seems to work fine.

POST 4Original post

My 07 does not have this issue and I have not heard of complaints. I'd lean towards racegreg's #1 point - some kind of obstruction. Have you owned the car a while and it just started happening?

POST 5Original post

Had the exact same issue with my Benz. The problem drove me loco. There is a valve in the evaporative emission loop which opens // closes to prevent or allow the tank to vent to the atmosphere. On the Benz it was located behind one of the fender/wheel well liners. When it fails the tank won’t accept fuel Don’t know where it is physically located in the Cayman but I suspect it has gotten stuck closed or has failed completely. Suggest you locate it and replace it. Relatively inexpensive part. Good luck

POST 6Original post

I had this problem with my '01 996. So bad I couldn't get any fuel in it. Turns out it was the evaporative emission valve as Ahalpern47 suggests. IIRC, there was a blown fuse.

POST 7Original post

Shame the FAQ vanished with the rest of the Files and Articles. As I recall this was a common complaint on Gen 1 Caymans .

POST 8Original post

There is a Porsche TSB regarding some of what you are describing. The problem was address by installing a venting collar on the filler neck. This solved my problems completely and installs in seconds. Suncoast has the part #PK9X7NOZZLE Tim

POST 9Original post

Thanks everyone. Will try to locate evaporative emissions valve location and part? Anyone? The collar imtwils Suggests speaks to the gas nozzle vapor hood. We don’t have those in South Carolina. Thanks though.

POST 10Original post

Hey Tim, welcome! Joined 1 day ago and with 1 post provides an explanation, part number and source for the repair part... excellent!

POST 11Original post

Guys does anyone have any guidance on this? Having the same issue with my 987.1

POST 12Original post

Not quite understanding your question, there are multiple answers in the thread and even a source for a solution, what's missing?

POST 13Original post

I have the same problem, I used the fuel filter nozzle and it helped quite a bit. I would recommend trying the new nozzle first before you try anything else.

This is a source reference. Confirm exact model applicability in the original material.
