Gas Tank Wont Fill
The last few times I have filled up I have noticed that the pump's auto shut of stops only after a couple gallons. It then keeps shutting off every gallon or so. I have tried different gas stations and it still is doing this. It is getting really annoying cause I never really know when my tank is full when I am pumping. Any ideas of what could be causing an issue like this?

my friends sti did this and there was excess pressure in the tank. his dad knows a lot about cars and stuck a tube in the gas tank and got a vacuum. sucking out the excess air. filed up like a charm.

Never had the chance work on an S2000 canister but many Toyota's I worked on had a vent tube that would clog up and also cause the same issue. Check to see if there is a vent tube on the big black box (charcoal canister) under the car by the diff, if I am not mistaken on mine it's right in front of the diff looking at it from the rear, on the drivers side. Check to see if there is any debris/dirt inside of it... Found mud, bugs, webs you name it on the Toyota systems.
