Engine Mechanical problem
2002 Chevy Blazer 6 cyl Four Wheel Drive Automatic 110k miles

unable to fill fuel tank without pump constantly cutting off. It doesn't matter how much fuel is in the tank, any speed faster than a drizzel causes fuel to back up and cut off pump and or splash out of filler opening.

Same issue here. There is a purge selinoid but you can't see it unless you remove the spare tire.
This valve may be stuck closed.
During driving in snow, a lot of ice and snow will be packed on top of the spare tire and this fowls up the valve.
Easy to replace and fairly cheep part.
