I try to fill the gas manually by holding down the lever, but it wont give me any more gas. after a couple of attempts, I had to move to a different pump to get gas. But same thing happens..

Anybody have an idea what is causing this? It happened to me twice at different Shell gas stations..

This exact thing happened to my 2000 Avalon a couple of months ago. It's a venting issue to the tank.
