GAS TANK WONT FILL!
Hey guys just had my tank tested at a gas joint...passed with flying colours, but now i have tried to fill it and the most i can get in is 8 cents!! the gas tank is empty and i need to put gas in it before mounting back on the patrol because its strait gas...i rang the gas place and i had it upside down tryng to fill it so the floats would of been all over the place but turned it up the right way and still nothing......anyone got any ideas?
i had the same problem with my gas tank after i had it tested. could only get 15cents or so in.
turned out to be a sticky one way valve or something. it cost about $150 to get replaced. i wasn't happy cause i couldn't understand how it passed a test, but the bloke said "WE TEST FOR LEAKS NOT IF YOU CAN FILL IT".
bit of bull shit if you ask me.

If its been 'properly tested', they will have replaced a couple of valves ( this should be done regardless of working condition).
Sounds like an issue with the AFL valve, its the one thats designed to shut off the gas flow when the tank is 80% full, yours has shut off even tho the tank is empty....
again.....
TAKE IT BACK

gas
tried 3 different servos lol....took it back today filled fine, i think the 1 way valve was stuck and when i pushed the stick into it freed it up because in the morning it was really free so took it back to APA today and they filled it no dramas...even replaced a bit of gas that i lost when i took it there 3/4 full so now i can go about finnishing my truck for the engine work to start
