Fuel Tank question

OK I am a newbie so if this is the wrong thread, sorry.

I have a 46 GAL Transfer Flow midship tank. When I try and fuel it, she pukes all over me if i am filling faster then a trickle. it takes 10 minutes to fill it up. I have tried different stations, and the installer says it is installed properly.

It is installed properly and it does take some time to fill it. Mine has never puked back at me, however I do just place the nozzle catch on the lowest click and let it go…works OK.

It still kicks off even on the lowest notch. and it will start puking at the start of filling.

Sounds like the vent tube is kinked or bent and not letting tank vent when fueling.
