Gas Problems

99 Hyundai Accent Mileage 150,000. The last couple of months when I have tried putting gas in my car, I have to pump it as slow as it will let me or the pump will shut off. The tank could be completly empty and it acts like it is full. Not sure if there is some kind of ventilation problem or what. But if I pumped a whole tank in, it would take me an hour. Do you know the answer to this question. Your help would be greatly appreciated.

thx

Check your filler hose that leads to the tank, it may be plugged.

It is located wehre you insert the nozzel and it leads to the tank, also I belive there is a fuel tank breather, that could be kinked or plugged.
