It never once occurred to me to fuel up with the engine running. I have done so once and only once because I dropped someone off, went to get gas in their car, then realized the key fob was with them so turn off = stranded. Beyond that I don't know why you would.

Im guilty of this. I turn it off when I have to pump myself but for some reason I never think about when I get to stay in the car. I guess I should make it a habit of turning off.
So originally I was going to ask if anyone else notices an idle dip during refueling. It happens once almost every time I refuel w the engine on. |

Never had an issue with check engine light. If you are worried about sparks, what about a car is started by yourself or others? Especially in Summer where the potential for an increased amount vaporized fuel is an issue.
