Exclamation Trouble fueling truck! Please help.

Hey everyone,

I have a weird situation. I got back from a deployment and went to go fuel up when all of a sudden the nozzle kept shutting off on me. I have tried every angle and nozzle position. I do have a check engine light on and i believe its a EVAP code. I can get it to take fuel but VERRRRRRYY slow. I can hear the fuel tank girgle aswell as the fuel travels to the tank as if there is a blockage. I dont see any lines visably kinked.

Does any one have any ideas before i head over to the dealership?

Take the filler tube off and see if the smaller breather tube is blocked by something

Its a common problem for the vent solenoid to sieze up it needs to be replaced and rerouted.

WOW, Surftrash 10. I have the EXACT issue. I returned from Iraq last year and my 07 is not taking fuel too. However I took it to m dealer, they checked every hose, all clear, they replaced the vapor filter, the vapor canister, and it still does it. and I got to pay $100 for them not to fix it!! the truck was semi taken care of when I deployed. there was nothing in the filler neck or any hoses? Now what?
