ISSUE
Some 2005-2006 Escape, Escape Hybrid and Mariner vehicles may exhibit a slow fuel fill or frequent filling station pump shut-offs, when refueling.
ACTION
Install a revised fuel tank filler pipe. The revised pipe has an improved radius to increase the fuel flow rate. Refer to Workshop Manual Section
310-01A.
NOTE
THIS CONDITION MAY STILL OCCUR ON SOME VEHICLES EVEN AFTER THE REVISED FUEL TANK FILLER PIPE HAS BEEN
INSTALLED. SOME FILLING STATION PUMPS MAY DELIVER FUEL AT A RATE GREATER THAN THE DOT SPECIFICATION, OR
MAY USE NOZZLE DESIGNS THAT ARE OVERLY SENSITIVE AND TEND TO SHUT OFF PREMATURELY. THIS IS NORMAL.
