I'VE GOT A 2020 BOBCAT T550. WHEN I REFUEL, THE FUEL COMES BELCHING BACK OUT OF THE FILLER TUBE IF I PUT FUEL IN LIKE I WOULD ANYTHING ELSE. BLOWS OUT OF TUBE PROBABLY 12" OR MORE AND WITH A GREAT DEAL OF PRESSURE. USUALLY BLOW ALL OVER ME. HAPPENS ON 2016 S650 BOBAT ALSO. GETTING REALLY TICKED OFF. TAKES FOREVER TO FILL. DEALER LAUGHS AND SAYS IT'S DESIGNED THAT WAY. WHAAAT?????. ANY SUGGESTIONS.
 
check and see if there is a tube that goes from the tank to filler neck , that tube should carry air back to the neck to help it not puke fuel while filling, but when the tank is near overfull it can push fuel into the neck and then out on you , anyway make sure that tube (if you have one ) is not pinched closed. I leave my machine running and watch the fuel gauge when filling so I do not overfill. I also use the slowest speed on the pump handle, diesel foams anyway when pumped ,and this will help reduce that action.
