Some Chevrolet Corvette owners report experiencing frequent shut-off issues while refueling, which may be attributed to several potential causes. These include the automatic cut-off adjustment on certain gas station pumps, which can lead to premature shut-offs for some vehicles. Additionally, a blockage in the breather tube or vent might cause the gas pump to stop repeatedly during refueling. Problems within the EVAP (Evaporative Emissions) system, such as malfunctions that prevent the collection of fuel vapor from the gas tank, could also contribute to these interruptions. Furthermore, some owners find that additional valves on top of the gas tank may be stuck shut, hindering the refueling process. It is also advisable to check if the anti-splash back door at the base of the gas tank filler tube is jammed shut, especially when the tank is low on vapors, as this could help diagnose the issue.
