So having trouble filling up! Seems like a lot of pressure build up in tank and causing the nozzle to cut off while filling up. Please help

I usually have a bit of vacuum release when I open the gas cap but not a lot. Perhaps it was just that one has pump causing you issues? Every now and then I have trouble with those high tech vapor recovery ones like they have in California

some times i have the same problem but only if i run my tank till the gas light comes on but if im just topping it off i seem not to ever have any problems! I wouldnt worry My boat has the same problem... i bet its just the way the hose is shaped within the truck causing some kind of extra vacuum!

I have that problem semi regularly. Seems to do it more at higher altitudes.

Ok so I thought I was just in vapor lock, well it's still doing it, also I'm close half a tank and only at 100 miles is common? Done a little research and it might be a clogged check valve or something to do with not bleeding out vapor.

Check your vent line. It could be pinched or blocked.

Ok that's what I have been thinking, but no clue where it is at, tried finding a diagram but I can only get h2s
