However, the ignition switch worked fine, and the engine was cranking. I had a car accident with my 1.25 ccm Ford Fiesta 2006, and after a crash - the car would not start. To start the engine after a car accident, you need to find the fuel cut off switch location (car inertia switch) and reset it. Thus, it prevents fuel from being pumped in case of fuel line damage during an accident. Like an electrical circuit breaker in your home, you can reset it by pushing the button or pulling the lever down.Īll modern fuel injection cars are equipped with an inertial fuel cut off switch that shuts off the power supply for the fuel pump if the vehicle is in a collision.

How to tell if inertia switch is tripped? 5 Important Steps Before Resetting the Fuel Cutoff Switchīefore pushing the "red button" of the fuel pump shut off switch, make sure to check if there might be some other problem preventing the engine to start. The inertia switch is a security measure implemented by car manufacturers to shut off the fuel supply in case of a car crash or accident where a vehicle comes to a sudden stop. Many vehicles come with fuel pump shut off switches. This device is analog to an electric fuse, but for fuel, not electricity. What is Fuel Pump Emergency Cut Off Switch?

Perhaps the different shape on the larger EL tanks is creates the bubble? Its sounding like a design flaw- because large bubbles like this should not develop while fueling. I joke with people about having to carry around a small gas station in the back because of the horrible gas mileage but that doesn't mean I actually want it to smell like a gas station due to all the spilled fuel. I like having the larger tank on the EL but what's the point if I can't utilize it? And even if I can't use that last segment of the tank, it'd be nice to fill it without having to don a Tyvek and wash down the side of the truck after each fill-up. I've seen so many people that have had a similar issue but none with an obvious fix, ie: replacing a vent/valve/or something. Then once the inflow of fuel stops is the bubble rapidly escapes out, bringing with it a bolus of wonderful smelling, flammable gas to douse all persons in its path, etch the finish on the side on the truck, awash the concrete in front of the fuel pump, and generally waste my money contaminating the environment with unused fuel. It seems to be the air is not escaping properly and creates a large bubble in the tank that is held back in the tank by the fuel flowing down the neck. So they never fixed it? I don't have 76 stations around me but I have the problem at all the others. Yours was actually the post I read from 2012. Waiting on my 1st Gen Bronco (my retirement truck!) Anyone else deal with this better than just not filling up more than 3/4 tank?Īdded Grill Guard but waiting on Aux lights to post pic I've seen multiple complaints about this but no solutions. I figured it was just a clogged/damaged vent on the stem but I called the dealer about it and he said it could be several different issues and wants $110 just to test it!!!
2005 EXPEDITION FUEL PUMP FULL
But going on roadtrips I want to maximize the range of the truck with a full tank without wasting time trickling gas into the tank. So I usually just leave the station with 3/4 tank. But those last 8 gallons or so can take forever (like literally 15 minutes!) at the slow rate. The remaining volume of the tank can be filled at a trickle rate. Different positions of the nozzle in the stem during filling does not change the result. '07 EB EL, Go to the gas station- any pump.Īt about 3/4 or so full, the nozzle trips off and then pressurized fuel spews/sprays/erupts/regurgitates/vomits (you pick description) from the fuel tank stem.

So- I found a 2012 post on this with no real answers and I'm looking for some updated information about this:
