Default Help me fill my tank! (don't need money)

So I got the girl running after some tranny woes and went to put in some premium petro. The pump shuts off every 10th of a gallon and gas bubbles out through the vent holes at the top of the filler neck. I only have patience to put in 2 gallons when I hit the station. Someone waive their wand and tell me how to fix this. I need to move on to bigger jobs on my sc.

Anyone have this exact issue and what did you do?

Did you look into what ALI SC thought HERE? What happened after that? does that seem to be the issue?
Are you just looking for the fix now? (I don't have that issue (yet) but I'm interested in the answer).

Its not hard to take the filler neck off from the looks of it maybe pop it off to see if something is in there?

Update my old thread....

I replaced the charcoal canister after a smoke test. No change in my gas tank issue. I just took the filler neck off and there are no obstructions. Still no change. Befuddled.
