Default Fuel Tank Problem

Every time I fuel my truck up now, I can only fuel it up slowly. If I fuel it up with the gas pump handle fully pressed then the the fuel starts spraying out of the fuel tank inlet. The gas stations in my area have evap handles on them. Anybody know what could be the problem.

Thanks for any help.

It's the fuel tank filter neck.

It's fairly easy to replace, at least on my '94. Takes about an hour the first time. Good luck.

Maybe your filler hose is crimped...take it out and inspect the inner hose. If it is crimped you can tighten a stainless steel clamp derectly on the crimp to hold the inner hose round....Good Luck...Tell us what you find
