97 Ranger gas filling problem
97 Ranger, 2.3 engine, 175k,
Just bought vehicle and found out that when filling gas tank I have to have the flow rate into tank at just about trickling. I looked at the filler neck hose to the frame but could not see any further, need to remove box to get to tank for inspection.I know there is a hose inside of hose so cannot inspect visually. I do have a intermittent P1443 code and I am getting vacuum line to replace bad lines now. I believe fuel tank and lines have been replaced but not 100% sure.
Any ideas as what the problem could be. Is it possible the vent cansister in the tank would be bad.
Thanks

Thanks for the input, will have to do as you say, lift the box up and inspect. That is what I suspect it is. Ebay has some for $49 shipped.
