Every time i set out to pump some liquid gold on my Monte, that thing lags. I cant use full pressure to fill up. I have to pump it very slowly. If i go too fast the pump handle will kick off. Like if it was full. The guy that i traded for my truck said there was a ball or something that regulates the flow and that "ball" thing whatever it is is screwed up. Anyone had anything familiar? Sending unit works 100% correctly. Mechanic said that the vent line is pinched or something but an open vent line?!?!? Rather do it myself than have to pay 200 for something so simple. Unless i have to buy a new gas tank

 

Mine does it sometimes, i usually pull the nozel out just a bit & itll fill up just fine

 

Dude i tried everything... all the way in, barely in, pulling out. but she don't like either.

 

At some stations with my old truck I'd have to tip the nozzle to the side. Just be careful cuz the gas can splash out easier.

 

I feel your pain...you are not alone. My '03 does the same thing-if I pump too fast it kicks off, and I can hear the gas gurgling back up. Every once in a while I'll hit the sweet spot and in it goes. I have no idea why this happens, but it's not that big of a problem so I've never bothered addressing the issue. All the same if you figure it out, let me know!
