I would do what Blinkwatt says. Hold it at an angle. I noticed this too; my guess would be the distance from the inlet and the base of the pipe leading to the tank is short. I have no idea about that, but more than likely it's due to the pressure getting a lot higher in the tank compared to the outside; Boyles law. The gas pressure will want to come out thereby moving the gas (liquid) out. Well whatever, just angle it.. drain the remainder of gas fluid in the pump, and keep the opening on gas tank inlet, open with the spout end of the pump. It works for me.
