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.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

My girlfriend and I both drive 996's. Neither car will fill all the way w/o clicking past the turnoff point about 8 times. Any fix for this?? Thank you

POST 2Original post

If you stop at the first "click" and drive away does the gauge creep up in a few miles? Many do. It is not good to "stuff" these tanks. It can overwhelm the vapor recovery system resulting in CELs and much aggravation getting things squared away again. If you can only put in a few cups at a time then you should look at TSB (Fuel Tank Hose Modification 5/99 2015 Scroll thrugh this thread look at post 13 on pg 1.
