I'm starting to dislike this thing. This is very dangerous, quick and ugly deaths.
gosh that sucks -- they need to fix that. Also check to see if the internal pump/siphon inside of the tank is bad -- I say this without knowing the the shape of our tank. My old e39's tank is shaped/contured around the center axle, so it is kind of divided in the middle. -- and required a siphon/pump to distribute the gas evenly in side of the tank.
