Probably a mechanical failure with the pump


Based on the article and other comments, it sounds like it's actually freezing. What other mechanical failure would happen and the resolve itself as it got warmer?


I'm suggesting the pump is frozen and not the gasoline. I pump gas in -40C every year. This weather is normal.


Isn't the gasoline the only liquid in the pump? What else could be frozen?
