and I have, all it tells you is that most of the 47 reported fires over the last 7 years APPEAR to be static related. And also, I apologize, I misquoted the feuling figure, it is 16-18 billion times a year. Basically what the reort says is that these fires were not all investigated, and the investigations conducted were not specified. In reality, I think they are just trying to get a shield up for the upcoming lawsuits.
There are just too many variables in these reports to draw any realistic conclusions. And if you read the PEIs little guide to proper refeuling, it only says, "Turn off the engine, don't smoke, and don't get back in the car." The reason for that is to prevent spillage. It has been that way for decades. Like I said before, your odds are better of being struck by lightning. I wouldn't really think that this will be a major problem. Good luck
