Dead serious thread, you probably don't have the problem on your newer truck, I never had it on our 88 K30.
I think some of you guys are misreading the problem, it fills just fine, the problem is it NEVER clicks off until after it overflows, no matter how slow, what angle I hold it at. I've seen lots of trucks with clogged vents that trip off 100 times while trying to fill up. That is not the issue here.
I do agree one problem is the fuel fill is too low and therefore the fuel fill hose is too short, this is one of the reasons I can't hear the fuel coming before it's too late and it sprays up. I filled it up using probably 1/4 flow last night and it still sprayed out with no sign of it coming.
I will check the vent hose though, thanks.
