Saturday morning I was fueling my Dodge Cummins and was topping it off for the first time in a good while when I heard fuel splattering on the concrete underneath. I thought "oh no" I'm leaking somewhere! I didn't seem to have a leak in the tank itself so I went on with my relatively short trip, with no further issues. Maybe I just overfilled it and it came out the spout, but I thought it was coming from behind or below that. Maybe a venting issue? Is this nothing to worry about or should I investigate deeper?
The Rams have a second flap down in the filler neck to protect against foaming blowback. If the filler nozzle isn't inserted fully, the second flap isn't opened and diesel will spill onto the ground through the overflow in the filler neck.
