Will not take fuel

Anyone have this problem? 2nd time this has happened. 1st time I had to pour about 2 gal. of gas before gas tank would take fuel. This time It wont even take gas out of a can. Both times I let the tank get below 1/8 . SES came on and its a fuel vapor code. Thanks.

Vapor lock in the gas tank. It makes the ball go up in the filler neck and keep a tight seal. That's why you can't get any gas in it. The evap on the fuel rail has probably taken a ****. That's my guess.
