Also ,, ive been to a few pumps before that dont let you fully press in the trigger or else it clicks off
so try holding the petrol pump trigger half way. ( you used to be able to lock the trigger on, but alot of places ive been too i dont see this any more)

Its got to be the breather pipe,Had that same problem..gets so far and stops...ether. fill tank slower,so tank can breath while filling up... or if you
know any one with welding rods bend ends slightly and go up and down neck 2 clear it .......Worked 4 me.
