My mother has a '05 GT conv. and has had problems filling up the tank since new. I thought it was probably a drop top thing until I got my '06 GT Cpe yesterday and have the same problem. Can't seem to get more than 2-3 gallons without waiting a minute before pumping in 2-3 more and waiting again. Anyone else have this problem? Other than that...I love my new pony.

It's a known problem, there is a TSB out for it...

Please use the search feature and you will find all infos you need. Good luck.

I thought they had fixed this one partway through the '05 MY. No?

I run into this problem on my 05 GT but my wifes 05 Mercury Mariner is much worse. It must run in Ford Products.

My 05 has the new tank/filler but still does it on occation... there is 3 pumps outa 10 or so at my Shell station I know is good... kinda weird...

Check out the TSB Sticky in S197 Tech... also do a search on filling problems, new tank etc...

I just got my 06, first gas station I tried, I had the fill up problem, but I managed to get it to work after I removed the nozzle put it back in, did this a couple times and it worked fine, I think there is some sort of vapor lock causing this. I then took it to two other gas stations and had no problem with it whatsoever. It seems like size does matter as far as nozzles :eyebulge:

i had the problem, took it to ford, they fixed it; still happens here and there .. putting the pump upside down tends to help

Yep, I had the same problem but strangely enough, it was at the Shell Station.
