Default Re: Why can i pump gas fast in my tank? Please hel

Put your hand over the vent when filling...is there lots of air coming through? if not then your vent has a kink or blockage... if you are getting good flow through the vent then your fill is kinked blocked etc....do a complete inspection of all lines/fittings etc for holes etc.

By kink, even just bending around a corner is enough to flatten (and thus restrict) the hose.

When are you going to update your profile picture? No one knows who you are otherwise. the new cabin is sweet.

I found the problem, when i was putting the barrier coat on the tank i put a piece of cloth in the fill tube so i wouldn't have to smell the fumes. I pulled it out but there was still a piece wedged in there, i was able to remove it without getting it in the tank. I hate when that happens Thanks you everyone for your suggestions they will still be helpful in the future.
