Default Cant fill my tank?????????

The past two times I went to get gas (at different locations different pumps) I had trouble getting the gas to go in without the pumps shutting off it took me forever to get it filled. Has any one had this problem or know if it is common? Maybe some type of vent is clogged up or somehting stupid? It is a 99 Z28 w 82K on it.

Happened to me before I had my mason tape on me and slid it down the fill tube while holding the first flap open. Not sure if that fixed it or not but it hasnt ever done it to me again.

I believe some say it is the rollover vent but my car has never rolled over....

Try a search there should be a few threads about this.

Yes I have to fill it super slow to the point I can hardly make the gas pump run that slow.
