I hope this video was helpful Thanks for watching!
Congrats to everyone who just got their liscence watching this because drivers ed didn’t teach us how to pump gas (:
lololol
yay me too lol
Literally me 😬 I just passed yesterday
Yea lol why don’t they teach us that
Or are parenting but for some reason would teach are younger sibling beacuse they actually care about them
4 years later, still helping thousands including myself. Thank you
Thank you I’m glad if it helped!! 😊
Overall I get what you’re saying but 4 years and u still needa come back to the video? I think I should have it down by now 😂.
My first time pumping gas by myself and I’m positive I’m gonna mess up from anxiety being alone. Thank you for the tutorial for us socially anxious drivers. 👍🏻
You’re welcome!
How was it???
I'm from New Jersey. Still not allowed to pump our own gas. I moved to PA and my anxiety level is through the roof! LOL
@MamaKellyK I’ve heard the before from nj. Congrats tho!
Literally me rn
thank you so much!! I’m a new driver and so nervous I’ll mess something up at the gas station!
You’re welcome. I’m glad if it helped. You’ll do fine!
Just got my license today i overthink shit to much 😂
Good job!
It ok, some of new drivers don't know how to do it themselves like myself
Saaaammmmeee I got an excellerated license class. Essentially I now have a drivers license after only 7 days of driving total. I have no idea what to do lol
From South Africa 🙋🏾♂️, next week I’m going to US, got a job… I’m really learning all things, don’t wanna mess things up over there😅…. Thank you so much 👊🏾
We got Petrol/ Gas attendants over here 😄
You’re welcome!
I felt very embarrassed searching this but thank you. I’m new to this and honestly still very nervous with driving, this was a very nice tutorial for me!
Thanks. You got this!
As an Oregonian, I can confirm that every Oregon driver needs to watch this video before driving out of state.
😁👍
Lol why
😂😂😂
@@arminius4986they pump ur gas for u
Now every driver needs to know regardless💀
You seem so sweet. I needed this today. My dads been filling up my gas tank for me when I drive but today he was at work. I went and I had no idea what to do and just broke down crying. Thank you for this tutorial though and being so sweet 💕
Awesome I’m so glad it helped! 👍
I am in the same boat! My dad always pumps my gas. We're all in this together... No shame in needing to learn something commonly defined as "basic". 😊❤️
I thought I was the only one whose parents fill the car for them 😅 Well where I live I am I think
@@rheannonfultz6449YEAH! My dad does the gas for all 3 cars because he’s worried about us being at the gas station alone. I’m so embarrassed that I don’t know how to and so I needed a tutorial 😅
As someone who is from Jersey and currently in Maryland this helped me out a ton! It’s so dumb but we aren’t taught this and I realized just now that I’m going to have to do this tomorrow morning whilst driving back 😂😂
Haha that’s awesome though I’m glad if it was helpful. Like you said though if you never have to do it you it doesn’t prepare you to go out of state. You’re the only state that’s full serve anymore.
Yeah. They don't teach us in any of the other 48 states either, dumbass. It's very self-explanatory, and if you actually need instructions on how to do this, you shouldn't be driving two tons of steel down the road.
@iRifle87 yes, for pointing out how sad it is that you actually need instructions on how to do the most mundane of adult tasks, that must mean I'm just a sad, angry person. I can't impress upon you just how pathetic and elitist other states see you guys for this.
@iRifle87 I'm dead serious. If you ACTUALLY needed to look up a RUclips video to figure out how to do something the display on the pump already tells you how to do, you are not responsible enough to be piloting a two-ton weapon down the interstate.
That's exactly why I'm watching this...live in New Jersey....it helped me 😎
This video is good for people who live in New jersey Or Oregon moving out of state or going on a road trip and its good for beginner drivers too
Yeah thanks hopefully it’s helpful!
I’ve never had to get gas by myself. I was always visiting someone and they’d get the gas. Im on a road trip to see my friend... thanks 🙏🏼
Edit. Grew up in OR. Mid 20s and just learned to punp gas.
Hey good for you I’m proud of you for learning. All the best on your road trip!!
i just got my license two days ago and never put gas in my car :/ i’m ashamed of it but i need to either today or tomorrow
No need to be ashamed. There’s a first time for everyone. Good luck!
I’ve been living in Oregon since the day after I got my California license so I’ve only done it once. Now I’m visiting for the first time in three years haha. Thank you for your video I’m sure it’s helped so many people ❤️
I totally get that. You’re welcome safe travels!
I live in Oregon, and was petrified to pump own gas, until I saw your helpful video!! Thank you so much!!
I did it by myself because of you!
That’s so cool I am glad it was helpful!! Thanks for letting me know.
Today is my first time pumping my own gas.. I used to live in Oregon and how I live in Idaho
I hope it went well!
I moved to Canada a few months back, and I recently got a rental so I'm watching this video to figure out how to pump my own gas since I've never had to do it before. Even years after this video came out it's still helping people. Thanks a lot
Thank you I’m glad if it was helpful! Good luck with everything.
We came to US and rented a car, and we had no idea how to do this! In our country there is no self service, if it wasnt for you, we wouldnt have know how to pump gas on the car!! This was extremely useful, thank you so much!!!
Thank you for letting me know! I’m glad if it helped. Welcome. Where are you visiting from?
Thank you so much for this! I’m a new driver and am very anxious about pumping my own gas for the first time! Thank you for this!!
You’re welcome. You’ll do great!
I’m not old enough to drive yet and my grandma is allergic to the gas and this helped me do it
Thanks. That’s very nice you did it for her!
Important thing to remember is that everyone needs to be able to use these. They make them simple and easy to use it’s not difficult and it’s made for people that are worried like you
Good message.
I am from NJ, have to watch this video every once in a while, when I leave out of state.
Looks like you’re not the only one from NJ. 😅
Omg thank you for this video! I felt so dumb not being able to pump gas 😂 but I am glad that I’m not the only one out there!! They don’t teach you any of this necessary stuff!
You’re welcome. I’m glad it helped. I know they should do that.
Just filled up on my own the first time today. Thanks for the tips dude!
You’re welcome. Glad to help.
Thank you, I’m 41 and my husband always does it for me. I will attempt doing it on my own today. Wish me luck super nervous!
Good luck I’m sure you’ll do great!
you really helped a New Jerseyan today
Awesome! Glad to help.
Thank you for this video! I’m glad I’m not the only one who is ignorant about pumping gas.
You’re welcome I’m glad if it helps.
I feel silly being nervous over something so small but i appreciate this video very much! Pumping my own gas for the first time tomorrow
No worries everyone has to start somewhere. You’ll do great. Good luck!
5 years and this man is my savior
Thanks 😁👍
Helpless Oregonian just over the california border and I've never done this before😂 thanks brother
Haha you’re welcome! 👊
You are the sweetest thing. Thank you for this video! You should be a teacher you’re a great explainer
Thank you so much I really appreciate it!
This video is really helpful. I am a new driver who started living in the USA in 2019 and just owned a car a month ago. I didn't know how to refuel and now I can pump my car...thanks!
Awesome thanks I’m glad it helped.
Will yes i am from oregon and going to California so i need to learn
That’s me rn lmfaooo
I need to go visit Oregon so I can see what yall got to offer me
Thanks, mate. I am moving from Oregon this month and I needed to know this. Been here since I was little and never had an opportunity to learn this, thanks again!
You’re welcome good luck with your travels!
Haven't been to the U.S. in a long time (just went the other day) and this video would've saved me about 5 minutes of waiting for a pump attendant to explain to me how to do this. :)
Thanks for letting me know. 😊
Im born and raised in Shartland, Oregon. When I went on a road trip recently I would stand there holding the pump the entire time haha. After watching your video I now know how to fill up without holding it.
Im finally moving out of this dirty and violent city next month. Thank You so much for this video.
Thanks and good luck with your move!!
Oregonian over here. You knew about the gas thing before I did!! 😅
Clearly I need to watch the news!!!😂
Thank you for the step by step! 😊
Haha they been talking about it for five years. You’re welcome.!
thank you so much for this i just got my first car and had been very sparse with driving in order to not have to pump gas for the first time, so thank you!!!!
You’re welcome. Safe travels.
As someone who lives in Oregon and is about to start working at a gas station pumping gas this video is helpful.
Awesome thank you! Good luck with your new job.
ive had my license for months but i just got my own car (i typically don’t use enough gas to have to fill the tank w my moms car) and now i’m sitting here w half and tank and panicking , so thank you so much!!!!
You’re welcome. Hope it went well.
Thank you so much this was so helpful! I watch it everytime I need to go fill up on gas every month
You’re welcome! I’m glad it helps. Thanks for letting me know.
Representing the New drivers Association, we say thank you for this video 😊😊
You’re welcome! Doesn’t look like you’re the first or will be the last 😁
Oregon born and raised here! Currently living in NM so I definitely appreciate this! Thank you
Thanks Ashley! How do you like nm?
Saw this on the news. I grew up in South Africa and moved to New Jersey. Had no idea this whole time I’ve been so lucky, or unlucky, to have always had fuel attendants.
Yeah I saw NJ had full service as well. Might as well enjoy it since you have it! :) Were you close to Cape Town?
@@SmartEasyDIYer Nice video. Do all gas pumps have a button to press? Some simply look like they don't. What happens before you even start to pump the gas, you selected the wrong grade of gas. Can you simply press another button to get the correct one? Thanks in advance!
To thanks so many years later and still helping others
Awesome! Thanks
I just got my license and this was very helpful thank you !!!
Thank you! I’m glad. Safe travels.
As a newly licensed driver i really appreciate the video help call my never before i go fill up gas
Congrats on your license! Safe travels.
there’s something that should be added to the video: when your pump automatically shuts off and your ready to pull out the pump, be careful not to hold down the black lever. the black lever is what you used to pump gas into the car in the first place
OMG! I NEED TO TRAVEL MORE! I live in silly-willy SoCal and this is something we have done for decades. If someone were to pump the gas for me it would feel like I stepped back in time.... Lol!!!
Haha yes I think only nj is left that pumps for you since Oregon no longer does.
Thank you soo much! I just got gas by myself for the first time! I was really nervous but this helped so much!!! ❤
You’re welcome! I’m glad it helped.
Thank you. I embarrassed myself terribly today at a gas station and at the end left without filling it. This helped, so tomorrow I’ll go back.
You’re welcome. I hope it goes better!
Thank you! This video is great for people who's parents failed to teach them how to become independent.
You’re welcome!
I’m from Oregon and have never had to pump my own gas. Had to drive off yesterday because I couldn’t figure it out in the moment. Now that my research is done, I’m ready to go lol
Oh my. I’m glad you are all set now 😊 good luck!
I’m from Oregon and they just started putting more self serve gas stations. Thanks for this video!!!
You’re welcome. Safe travels!
me, an oregonian having to pump their own gas for this first time: BLESS YOU
Thanks! I hope it went well for you. Safe travels.
Thanksss, my parents taught me a few times as I was learning how to drive, but I forgot because I didn’t get to do it enough, so thanks!
You’re welcome!
I was recently in Astoria , Oregon , I live in Washington State . The woman putting gas in my car wanted to " round up " to an even amount . Though the pump clicked off , meaning it is full . Going beyond this as they say will damage your emission system , charcoal canister . I told her no and mentioned this , which I don't think she knew about . So , when traveling through Oregon , be sure to mention NOT to fill beyond the pump shutting off .
Thank you for your help! I’ve been asking my family to help me during the first time but I’m all about being independent!
You’re welcome. Good luck with everything!
This is something I’d never thought I’d need to learn from a yt video
😁👍
You have no idea how much this has helped me I almost ran out of gas and didn’t know and this saved me
Wow awesome I’m glad to hear! Not the running out part, but that it helped you.
At the gas station watching this right now😂😂
Haha I hope it goes well! The main difference since I made this is they now have chip readers, instead of just swiping your card, which takes a little longer.
I don't live in Oregon but I'm fairly new to driving and I didn't want to call my dad to help me over the phone again so thanks I appreciate the help!
You’re welcome I’m glad if it helped!
Felt that
Thanks so much! It’s legal to pump your own gas in Oregon now, and I’ve never done it before 😅
Glad I could help!
thank you!! i’m from jersey and they don’t teach us how to pump our own gas because none of the gas stations are self serve- im sure i could have figured it out but this video made me less anxious about pumping my own gas for the first time. thank you!! :)
Great! Glad it helped.
You would think it would have a couple hundred thousand views because nobody in Oregen knows how to pump their own gas 😂
😄
Same in new Jersey lol
yea going over the river to Washington was always funny when I was with a diff. friend in our teens.
Have to learn this because of fires. Not mad though. 🤪
Sorry about the fires they are horrible! Glad if this could help you tho.
Oregon woman here, thank you i needed this
You’re welcome. 😊
Question: How does it determine how much gas to put in? Like do I have to enter the number of gallons or make sure to stop it before it's full? Thanks.
No it’ll Shut off automatically when it’s full. Even if you are holding it wide open to fill it it’ll shut off.
@@SmartEasyDIYer what if I don’t want to fill it all the way up
Once it’s started Just hold the handle till it’s how full you want then let go.
What about if you put a desired amount of gas but you don’t know if that will surpass the amount the full tank?
I had a little over half tank and I filled it up 30 dollars but just stoped until it went to 30 dollars. I’m worried I put too much gas?
Thank you, got my license a month ago & haven’t used my car too much till now so this helped
Thanks I’m glad it helped!
New driver here as well, thanks for this video and the comments about auto shut off. I was down to a quarter tank of gas so I had to learn now. 😁 new car an all.
You’re welcome. Glad it went well!
Thank you this helped so much when going to top golf otherwise we would have run out of gas.
You’re welcome. I’m glad it helped.
Little did you know we would need this during quarantine/lock down lol
Haha I had no idea. Lol
Smart Easy DIY thanks for the tutorial man 😂 I just watched it to fill my girl’s tank lol appreciated!!
You’re welcome glad to help. 😊
felt so dumb googling this but it was a huge help for real. having to travel out of jersey for the first time and now i'm not so nervous lol
No worries I’m glad if it helped!
I feel extremely embarrassed to be searching this up lol. I’ve done it before with adults and they thought me how, but I’m afraid I’ll mess it up on my own. They never thought me this in drivers ed which I think is strange as it’s an everyday things in my area. Thanks for the help!
You’re welcome. I hope it goes good!
I’m 21 and have been driving for a few years and I’ve lived in NJ where they pump the gas for you. Felt ridiculous looking up how to do this in the Poconos for a ski trip i was on lol. My gf got a good laugh, but she also didnt have the slightest clue so thank you lol
You’re welcome. Totally get that. Safe travels!
As a resident of a state that does not let you pump your own gas, thank for for this public service!
You’re welcome!
I grew up in another country and lived in Oregon for years so I def needed to watch this video :) Thank you, still need to pump, but I'm sure I'll do fine.
Yes, I’m sure you’ll do great! 😁👍
TY I've lived in Oregon most of my adult life so I've never had to pump my own gas. This was very helpful!
You’re welcome. I’m glad it helped!
Hey thanks for this video. I wanted to know if a latch/lock doesn't work and you have to hold the pump how will I know when the tank is full ? Does it click or does the pump get stuck to let you know .?
I've only filled up my Gas once as i'm still a learner - but I believe it will stop even if you're holding it. If you want to be 100% sure and not overflow your tank or anything, it might be a good Idea to get some general knowledge on your car and how many gallons of Gas your car can hold. If you know that, then once you get low on gas (like sub 40 miles probably) you can just look at the price gauge telling you how many gallons of gas it's filling up and stop when it's around how much your car can hold (just a little method i thought of to be safe, haven't put it to test though but if you're filling it up that way, stop filling it up when you're at least a gallon less than what your Car can hold).
Yes it will shut off when it’s full even if it doesn’t have the little handle to keep it open and you have to hold it the whole time. The nozzles can sense when it’s full and shut off in time.
Jersey Girl here, moving to a new state so I watch this video many times because I'm a mess with the gas pump lol
Safe travels! Enjoy your adventure. 😁
Or NJ. I once met a young lady who was 60 miles into PA and was confused about what to do.
Interesting. Maybe NJ does it differently.
Yea, I live in Jersey and you're not allowed to pump your own gas. It's actually illegal, so there are no self serve gas pumps in the entire state. I am soon to be 23 and I've never pumped my own gas.
Wow that’s so different to think about. That makes it harder if you ever travel out of the state.
Using this video to help with my agoraphobia and panic disorder, thank you for the guidance :D
You’re welcome. I’m glad it helped.!
That lock never works for me.
Thank you so much I’m a new driver and I am OCD about many things and this helps a ton thank you sir!!!
You’re welcome I’m glad it helped!
People from Oregon where you at
i got my license yesterday and i have to drive to school tmrw and i have to pump gas don’t know how to so this is helping🤞🏼
Congrats! I’m glad it helped.
Diesel has a yellow handle in Canada
Thank you, getting my license soon and don’t have anyone to teach me this type of things anymore
You’re welcome. Yes they should teach that.
so Oregon was the only state still living in the 80’s?
Haha well NJ still is full service too.
More like the 50s.
I just got my license and don't know how to pump gas. I'll be trying this in a few, thank you!!!
Ok good luck!!
I never put the gas nozzle back i just drive off while the gas nozzle is still in my tank to use even the last drops of the remaining gas in the nozzle and as you drive away the nozzle will be out of your car automatically less hassle for me
😂🤣 it may not always pop out automatically enough
it’s so simple but seems so hard
You’ll do good.
im from jersey traveling out of state, never pumped my own gas in my life thank you
You’re welcome safe travels
how do you know when you're done
putting gas in your car?
It’ll shut off automatically when it’s full.
Thank you for this! My anxiety said to learn online rather than asking those around me for help.
You’re welcome! I hope it helps.
Wait... Green pump handles mean diesel over there? That would confuse the crap out of any Brits visiting, as the colours are reversed over here in the UK.
Wow that’s interesting. Yeah green is diesel. The nozzle is bigger than gasoline though so there is really not a way to put diesel in a gas car by mistake as some are saying. I suppose you could put gas in a diesel car by accident though.
Thanks so much for this!! I'm coming to the states for a few days and where I come from self service isn't really a thing, so none of us pump our own gas. I was actually a bit nervous about it.
You’re welcome. I hope you have safe travels.
Thank you man! Bet you guys will never guess which of the 50 states I'm from 🤣
You’re welcome! Yeah that’s a tough guess. 😂
Smart Easy DIY I mean, there's 50 of em right? How could anyone guess?
Right?! 😁
Anyone else here because Oregon just made self serve legal after 70 years?
I think you’re not alone. 😁
In my home country, there purpose to have a guy to help you to pump. I have over 10 years driving experience but I don't even know how to pump it by myself , thanks a lot
You’re welcome. I hope it helps.
Like and reply if you're an Oregonian.
(Oregon made Self Serve legal on August 5th, 2023 - aka yesterday)
They’ve been talking about it for a long time!
Also helps out those of us in new jersey, thanks a bunch
You’re welcome! Yes I hear from quite a few from nj.
Mostly Oregonians are watching this video, and we know why😑
Are you from Oregon?
Smart Easy DIY yep, been here most my life, and this is heartbreaking news for us.
Wow that’s cool though. It’s beautiful there. Yeah it probably is cuz you’ve been used to it that way forever.
What is your current price for regular? Pretty comparable to mine?
I've been pumping gas since the 1970's although in those times you did not have the easy credit/debit features. Other then the cold weather I don't mind it, I can keep some type of tab on what is going on. I guess this big question is; why is Oregon making this change now? Mandate or what?
We Oregon people can pump our own gas now thank you very much
😁👍
Im just watching cause im a new driver but if adults dont know how then thats kinda sad
Yeah I guess everyone has to learn sometime. 😊
If you don't know something, then you have no right to criticize others who don't, period.
@@omgpuppet I know I did not learn until I was like 35.
you are doing the lords work omg
Haha thank you! 😁
