Sounds like your filler neck might be messed up (guessing). I'm in Virginia Beach, I'll give you one of my tanks if you want to come and get it.

There was 2 sizes of filler necks available on these trucks.
1-1/2" and 2-1/8" Although I have never seen one with a 1-1/2" neck. What size does your truck have? |

I dont know what the difference is but if you look at gas caps in the LMC catalog they show different part numbers for trucks with EEC and without EEC.(Evaporative emmission Control). The ones with EEC have a small Tube that comes off the side of the filler neck near the gas tank. But I dont know if this is your problem or not.Perhaps someone at LMC could help.
