Thank you so much! This is the temporary fix I was hoping for. Like you, I don't have a heated barn to work in so I'll wait until it warms up to change the canister. Until then this will work just fine. Thank you again for making this video; helps me alot. I'll subscribe.
Thanks for the video. Mine needed a new charcoal canister. It wasn't super obvious that the old one was bad, it just couldn't flow enough air anymore after 65,000 miles.
Thank you! I just got a 2008 f250 and I have this same problem. I'm so glad I found your video before I dropped the tank. I don't pay people to work on my vehicles either. Thanks again
Thanks for the video. I have the same problem and it does work and allow me to fill the tank. If I remove the purge vent hose. I have researched this and the problem is usually the vent solenoid or the canister preventing filling. Thank again for this tip!!!!!
I have a 2008 ford f250 super duty, and it's horrible to fill up, I'm going to try this"life hack", and it currently takes about 30/35 minutes to fill up while I'm standing there. Thank you!
Thank you! I’m pretty sure this my problem. I just bought the truck and the first thing I did was put fuel in it. I’ll come back here to let you know if it worked.
Thanks for the tip. I have a 2011 f250 and mine is doing the same thing. I've done some research and it sounds like it's not the canister, but the canister vent valve that you were taking the hose off of. I'm going to try that first before messing with the charcoal canister.
I have the same truck (year make, different model), nearly and have the same issues. Im taking it to the mechanic today for these repairs. Maybe I don't need to now.
Excellent video ! Ford always comes up with better ideas, don't they??? Listen, So now, every time I want to fuel up, I have to open up the hood and disconnect the hose. Well isn't that just wonderful. OK, the SuperDuty I have, has a parasitic battery draw. I have to open up the hood every night anyway and use a battery disconnect. Wish we had more guys around like you. The ones turned out today are more concerned about their stereo and cup holder location.
Thank you for that Hack! I have changed everything out, (and dropped my gas tank 5 times, in the process) including the Evap Cannister ($269 from Oreilly). Same time I changed out the Evap Solenoid. While doing that I broke the attachment for the upper hose on the solenoid, so I made a new one and installed that. STILL have the gas filling problem! AARGH! So yesterday, I disassembled the gas intake hose all the way to the gas tank. But, there are no screens or anything getting in the way of the gas going straight in to the tank. So, that's not it. Perhaps, I need to change the line that you are referring to in this hack, now. It goes from the evap cannister to the solenoid. It is the only thing I have not changed on my entire fuel system.
I'm going to buy a replacement for $115 and install it when it's warm. Thanks for the tip, I will do it next fill up. It's so annoying with the click, click, click.
U can get a compressor and blow air from the hood connection and it will blow any dirt out just disconnect from tank....also take off lines of canister open it blow dirt out too that’ll fix it !!! Doing mine right now
We still run a 2006 F250 and we've been doing this for a couple years now but the last time we needed fuel, we disconnected the lower line like usual and it started acting like it does if it were hooked up, we had to go half throttle and took forever to fill. I might just try blowing out the line from the engine connection back.
Thanks for the great video, I'm not mechanically inclined and was wondering if there is any reason you couldn't keep the bottom line off all the time? That way you wouldn't have to lift the hood and unattach it every time you go to fill up. My truck is have the exact same issue.
It would most likely set off a check engine code and the light on your dash. Just as having the gas cap unscrewed on the filler neck can do. Additionally I think it would cause poor performance for your engine. Not worth the issues vs the inconvenience of disconnecting the line. This is suggested a s a temporary work around only. You should get it looked at and repaired properly.
I have a97 F250 super duty with duel tanks and it has that same issue, click.. click... click... yeah 10 cents of fuel per click. so... annoying!! I'll have to try this. thanks for the hack.
My mechanic though says theres a little ball, like a ping pong ball in the fuel fill line, to prevent gas from coming back up when you over fill the tank, its pushing up to hard and lot allowing gas to go past it. We will see if he is right or its one of these two issues you described. Which is what the internet says as well.
there is not a ping pong ball in it. it is a flap where the fuel goes into the tank. there is a seal on that flap, so it could get soft and not release when you put fuel into the vehicle.
Engine compartment is purge solenoid. Rear of truck vent solenoid. By disconnecting the purge solenoid trigger a code. Did you find out what was your problem? Was your mil on?
Do you think it’s that solenoid hanging closed and not the charcoal canister? It seems like if it was the canister taking the line off wouldn’t do anything because the line is after the charcoal canister?
seems to me you are 100% right....the system is venting fine up until the solenoid under the hood.. otherwise..it wouldnt take gas by unplugging it..the issue isnt the canister ..unless you unplug BEFORE the canister and its fixed.. maybe we are wrong...but i am about to find out...hahahaha my 2010 f 150 has the same exact issue..and i will post what happened when i get it fixed...first i am going to try his trick if i find the same thing under the hood ( i am 90% sure its the same design or close enough) after that..if its confirmed to work as he " tricked" it...i wil buy the new solenoid ..and report back what i find :)
Thank you!!!!! Iits about to snow and I’ve been trying to get enough gas in my f350 and it was killing me But this video helped 100 thumbs up for you my guy 👍
@@champflyer334 , Thanks. Finally got to try this out on the company truck and it works fantastic! No more standing out in 20 degree weather for 25 minutes to fill up. Did notice a lot more fumes around the engine compartment while I had the hose off to fill. Reconnected and all is well.
Sir, you are a Gentleman and a Scholar
Thank you so very much for your help
Thank you! My husband has been struggling with this same issue on our new RV for months. We’re going to try this. God bless!!
Thank you; That's been driving me crazy

Thank you for this video. This has saved me a lot of frustration until I can get to repairing the EVAP system.
Thanks for sharing having same issue on my 2005 f-250. Pain in the ass on my 27hr drive home. This will help till I can get fix

I changed the vent valve on mine and that fixed it. Bought it on EBay
Adam west what was the issue with your 2011??
Thank you for your video! I just discovered the same problem in my F-250 so I appreciate your info!!
It worked. Thanks. Better than a repair bill.
Thx, I'm going to fill up tomorrow and it sure takes a while. Lol not 45 minute, oh bout that would suck. Thank u again great vid.
I have that exact same issue very good info 👌 👍

all makes of vehicles have evap canisters. i dont know why you say "Ford always comes up with better ideas, don't they???"
@@dethangelishere394 Enjoy your stereo and cup holder.

Did this help by changing this line
My truck has same issue.... its currently getting rear axle swapped but I'll try this when I get it back
you are a righteous lad, thanks!

Thank you so much for this video!! It worked after I tried Everything!!❤
Did the charcoal turn out to be the problem? Thank You for your time.
Your the man, thank you, thank you! You saved me a lot of research 😅
trying to figure this out on my 2004 e-250 van. you'd think of all the vehicles on youtube a work van would be the first theyd post about .
U can get a compressor and blow air from the hood connection and it will blow any dirt out just disconnect from tank....also take off lines of canister open it blow dirt out too that’ll fix it !!! Doing mine right now
What year was yours and did that fix it?
Thought it was the vents on top of the tank. Going to try this instead.
Sure helped me! Thank you very much

@@champflyer334 ok thanks for the info 👍
Nailed it man! I have the same truck - same year, model, and the same problem!
same here also; identical.
Same here... identical truck

you are right, that is exactly what it is. I had the same issue on my truck. I had it replaced and now it fills up fine.
there is not a ping pong ball in it. it is a flap where the fuel goes into the tank. there is a seal on that flap, so it could get soft and not release when you put fuel into the vehicle.
@@dethangelishere394 same difference. its a seal. to prevent spill in case of roll over.
We about to find out 🙏
Engine compartment is purge solenoid. Rear of truck vent solenoid. By disconnecting the purge solenoid trigger a code. Did you find out what was your problem? Was your mil on?
It was the solenoid on the fire wall. I replaced it and it works fine now. Mine never put out any code when I would unhook the vent hose.
Thank you!
Thank You.
Thank you
This guy is a fucking legend!!!!
Thanks!
Do you think it’s that solenoid hanging closed and not the charcoal canister? It seems like if it was the canister taking the line off wouldn’t do anything because the line is after the charcoal canister?
I changed both the front and rear solenoids nothing changed, checked the hoses, going to change the EGR valve. Worst engineering ever.
@@andrews993 did you get your problem resolved?
seems to me you are 100% right....the system is venting fine up until the solenoid under the hood.. otherwise..it wouldnt take gas by unplugging it..the issue isnt the canister ..unless you unplug BEFORE the canister and its fixed..
maybe we are wrong...but i am about to find out...hahahaha my 2010 f 150 has the same exact issue..and i will post what happened when i get it fixed...first i am going to try his trick if i find the same thing under the hood ( i am 90% sure its the same design or close enough)
after that..if its confirmed to work as he " tricked" it...i wil buy the new solenoid ..and report back what i find :)
@@illusion9966 so what did you find?
Thanks this helps me
This problem is horrible 2007 f250 with 60k on it gonna replace the solenoid but glad you showed us a temporary fix anyone find a permanent fix?
Guy says he changed the vent valve on the canister and it works now
Happened to me today! Same year
Anyone know how to fix the issue ?
Hello do you have any tips on overheating issues on this particular vehicle?
I have not had any overheat issues on my truck. Sorry.
Thank you!!!!!
Iits about to snow and I’ve been trying to get enough gas in my f350 and it was killing me
But this video helped 100 thumbs up for you my guy 👍
Are you from PA? you sound a lot like my father in law. :)
I have a 2019 and I have that issue
How do you release the clip holding the hose on?
squeeze the colored ring on the hose end. Use your fingers or a pair of pointey nose pliers.
@@champflyer334 , Thanks. Finally got to try this out on the company truck and it works fantastic! No more standing out in 20 degree weather for 25 minutes to fill up. Did notice a lot more fumes around the engine compartment while I had the hose off to fill. Reconnected and all is well.
V10!
Tip it upsidedown and hold it just about first click.
Know fixing slagging spring in the back it's now worst.
Would this work with an 06 f150
Dont know.
Just flip the gas pump upside down. It works just fine
I cannot find this on my truck.
Nothing there were yours is. F250 gas. 2012
Effects all of them car to truck to Motorhome , been thought 2 of them ,
Damn that bed is short?? Or is it just the camera lol
must be camera angle. 6' bed.
That's right on top of the exhaust manifold, CARRY A FIRE EXTINGUISHER ~!
Tried your fix. Barely worked. I could do a trickle fill when it wouldn't fill like that before bypass. It still the ball catch.
That's not working on my truck.
I am walking away from Ford forever because of this (and other reasons as well).
