Default Odd problem

Recently has developed a problem when trying to fuel my 1999 Dodge Durango. It will not accept more than a dribble of fuel while fueling ,so takes me almost 20 min's to fill the tank. Seems to be some sort of blockage. Can't see anything down the filler neck. If anyone has any ideas what could cause this, please let me know.

THX

There is a rubber garment that connects the filler to the tank. It isusually on an angle and after time it can pinch off causing this problem. Look up under the driver side rear wheel right behind the tire. I believe it is a dealer part but a parts store my have it.

Easy fix.

Thanks for your help. Turns out that after taking off the filler hose I found a small round piece of cardboard from a bottle of injector cleaner lodged in the filler neck and partly blocking the tube. Easy just had totake it apart.

Nice to see you got it out and back on the road driving and fueling away.
