Default Fuel not pumping?

Hey whenever I pump gas it only pumps about half a gallon before stopping. I'm sure that it isn't because it's full and I've done this at different pumps as stations. Does anyone else have this issue?

this has happened to me once before, I had to hold the pump up a bit higher and closely watch the gallons go in so it wouldn't spray everywhere when it fills up...

^^ yup! that's right! mine does it to, you have to set the gun at the right angle cuz its designed to stop when it reaches a certain level so you kind of have to sit it Perfect on the gas tank for it to work like its suppose to...low lifestyle lol
