The only thing I can suggest you check is the breather. If you look under the truck where the filler tube goes to the fuel tank, you will see a smaller tube that runs along the filler tube. It is a breather that allows air to exit the tank as you fill it. IF it is plugged, can can't enter the tank.

Let me know what you find.
