I replaced the fuel filler hoses from the inlet to the fuel tank. I filled the tank then drove it. When I attempted to put fuel in 300 miles later, the gas dispenser nozzle clicks off as if the tank is full. The gauge registers whatever I input, usually about 5 bucks then I can't add any more the nozzle clicks off. Fuel even backflows out of the tank. I tried different stations, same result. Is the tank full? But only registering 1/8 of a tank. I'm confused.

sounds like the fuel filler hose is kinked off or was installed properly, or you bent or kinked the vapor line, go back and double check what you did, i dbout its 1/8th of a tank empty after 300 miles!
