    No, I've heard too many stories of folks "topping off" their tanks which can risk getting gasoline inside the charcoal canister...and it's not cheap getting that replaced.

    I estimate the amount of gas she needs (like 7 gallons) and will turn the auto-fill level from "fast" to "slow" at around 5 gallons to finish it up. Once it clicks, that's it.

    Just a one time thing to see how much gas there is from auto shutoff to overflowing.

    Do you know? If so you can save me the trouble.
