So I was at the pump, as always had the gasoline pump speed on low, when suddenly the gasoline starts overfilling!

:mad: WTF! Spent the last 30 minutes trying to make sure I got all the residue off - anyone else have this happen to their Versa? Any possible causes?

I'm hoping the EVAP canister didn't get flooded and drove around for 30 miles to make sure I burn off some excess..

I've had problems in the past with pumps having faulty reclamation systems. I knew it was the pump because it was always the same pump; other pumps at the station were fine. They wouldn't make a seal or whatever they need to do and they shut off almost immediately after pulling the trigger -- really annoying. Maybe they need to be cleaned or something.

Hope there's no permanent damage to your evaporation thing; I know that was an issue with the Mazda3 and it was really expensive to replace.
