Fiat and Cummins in court
Saw this on another forum. Fiat Cummins lawsuit
Forum Discussion
Not sure how I'm being accused of being "I understand that you are hesitant to try new technology" but I'm not. The fact that I bought a EcoDiesel should show that.
I have been responding to the posts that water, dirt, fuel, DEF or anything else that gets past the first flapper would be sent to the ground. I tried and it doesn't. I pushed the fuel nozzle just past the first flap and dispensed some fuel (until it clicked off, which was not long at all, maybe a second) and no fuel spilled on to the ground....none!
So either there is something wrong with my trucks cap less system or the fuel (or whatever) either stays there until you push the nozzle past the second flap and goes into the tank. That or there is some kind of catch system in place.
I put a cap on my truck for my piece of mind and to make **** sure nothing could get in to the fuel system. For whatever reason FCA/Ram decided not to put a latch on the Ram trucks like we have on EVERY other vehicle that uses a capless system. I have seen my fuel door open when going through the drying section of some car washes! Did not make me all warm and fuzzy I can tell you that!
The capless system has nothing to do with FCA/Ram and Cummins dispute at any rate.
