They make them like this for a reason.
God some of you people are so stupid it hurts.
You mean stupid like misspelling "asinine"?

There is never the same amount in the tank when I fill it up so I DONT know how much it will take to fill it up all the way, and, yes, I do know that my tank holds 17 gallons. Those of you who claim to shut it off before the pump does are either full of crap or fill up 3/4 full each time.
Report it to the local fire department first, OP.
the auto-shutoff is triggered by the gas vapors coming up the fill port, if the nozzle isn't seated properly the shutoff may not work correctly.
however, you can literally hear the sound change as the gas fills up the tank and gets close to full, and you can manually shut off the pump before it overflows. shutoffs didn't reliably exist in the 80s, in some cases you had to hold the nozzle down the entire time.

Maybe the station owner is scrolling dcum instead of fixing the pump
From these responses that's what it seems like.

If you’d follow the instructions properly you wouldn’t be spilling gas.
This. You should know your tank’s capacity and when it’s approaching full, then disable the auto-pumping accordingly.
Stop huffing gas fumes, and learn to read.
+1000 the people here are idiots!!!!
