My 2001 Olds Bravada 4.3 liter has 119000 miles the smog pump has been replaced with the mod and it still gives a code for the air pump. The fuel pump was replaced about 10,000 miles ago. Just reciently when you try putting gas in the tank the pump shuts off, the pipe is not dented or kinked the gas does seem to push air from the vent tube at the fill tube top. But the fill tube fill up before the tank is full. Any help would be appreciated. I am a construction equipment tech not an automotive tech. I dont have the money to keep taking it to the shop.

The weather in northern michigan did not allow me to work on the car so I took it in. The vent valve in the evaporator system was stuck not allowing the fuel to fill. The airpump code was caused from a leaking hose, this was found after it burned thru completly. The fuel level sensor and fuel tank pressure sensors were also bad. All together a $600.00 bill and i,m running again. wish the 12 inches of snow hadn't come so I could have saved some cash on labor.
