I have changed everything pretty much 2 purge valves 2 charcol cannisters the valve on the side if the filler neck the leak detection pump. I have tried everything at the pumps turniing the gun on a angle not putting the nozzle in all the way I do not know where to go next the only time it does take gas not a problem is when I have already put gas in in the morning and I go to put more in later on in the day and it seems to go in fine

any help would be greatly appreicated

TIA

Default Whoa, did I just get laid?

I can't make any sense out of that.

Is it a fuel supply issue or a filling issue?

No you didn't. It made sense to me. No idea over the web what his trouble is though.

Default Check for leaks with a lighter, it will show you where the real problem is in a very speedy fashion.

DO NOT CHECK FOR FUEL LEAKS WITH A LIGHTER!!

I was kidding, sorry....I can't actually help you. It's usually the carbon canister, but since you've changed it.....I dunno.
