Whenever I pump gas into my SUV at the Gas station the gas nozzle cuts off. I have used Gumout and Tank cleaners but the problem is not solved.

Hi there,

The fuel tank venting system has failed somewhere, this is really a job for a mechanic as it is a tricky system and the fuel tank may have to be dropped out to checked some of the hoses involved.
