2nd Tank & Petrol Spill!

Went to the usual Esso petrol station along Tampines Ave 9 to top up petrol. Drove alongside pump 4 and started pumping Esso 5000 using the leftmost nozzle. Set it at the slowest setting and stood at one side to wait.

Had a bloody shock of my life when all of a sudden saw petrol all over the floor at around the 40 litre mark! DAMN! The nozzle failed to auto stop and is still pumping out petrol even though my tank is full! Hell, the whole of the rear left is stained with pink now.... Grrrr...

Anyway, pumped 40.33 litres of Esso 5000; amount inclusive of those overflowed to the ground... Distance travelled - 461.2km. FC is abt 11.4357km/l.
