When the air can't get out, the air becomes compressed by the fuel that is coming in. Eventually that compressed air will push the fuel out the filler tube causing the fuel to overflow as the air tries to rise above the level of the fuel.
Do i have to modify any other part to put in the SR20DET?
Vehicles since model year 2000 or so have a device called an on-board vapor recovery valve that controls the venting process. The chances are if your car is a 2000 or later that the problem is with that valve. If it is earlier, the vent tube is bent or clogged.
Arent 1993 Thunderbirds just awesome?
I can't speak to the fuel consumption issue as fuel consumption is a function of how the vehicle is driven, how long it is running when stopped in traffic and even the weather. If the vehicle is driven primarily in the city in stop and go traffic then the fuel consumption you cite is within the 'normal' range.
hope that helps
Should I sell my 2002 Honda civic?
You need to put in less gas.How long should i "break-in" my new BMW 328i coupe?
Consumption is fine. The over flow issue is a problem with the pump. You may not be putting the nozzle down far enough for the auto shut off to work correctly. Other wise if your filling at the same station every time, try a different station and see if you have the same problem. It may just be something wrong with the nozzles at that station.Why do Black People like Nissan Maximas/Altimas so much?

Excuse me, do you push the nozzle(the

into the tank as far as it will go?

Four door, six cylinder car, what should I buy?
If fuel is put in cold and expands later with warmer temps, it will overflow. You need to not run the tank up to the last click of the nozzle. If you are getting gasoline spitting out while filling, you may have an air trap in the design of the car so you are compressing air while filling which then pushes the gas back. You may have to look at the arrangement of the tank and piping and intentionally park so the fill is higher and the car tilted away from the pump.More Questions & Answers ...
