Anyone experiencing a fuel overflow problem with the S2k? As im filling up my car it seems to overflow some fuel just before the first click....and when I try to top it up, it overflows....

Anyone??...

Everytime I fill up my tank, I always put a folded paper towel under, in case it does overflow a little. The shield of the nozzle holds the paper towel in place. So now if a little fuel spills out, the paper towel will absorb it and not run over the side.

Interesting. I'm typically able to top off another 0.1-0.3 gallons after the auto shutoff. Maybe it's the California no-fumes pump designs.
